SAMPLE:
Given is the bar chart illustrating how much waste was collected by a recycling
facility in five consecutive years, starting from 2011.
Overall, it is clear that the total amount of waste collected each year showed upward
trends and only fluctuated slightly. Additionally, while the paper was the most
popular type of recyclable waste, the opposite was true for garden waste during the
given period.
As can be seen, in 2011, 57 tons of paper were collected, which was considered to
be the highest and followed by 48 tons of glass. Tins and plastic waste accounted
for a smaller volume, which was recorded at 35 and 32 tons. A year later, all four
categories experienced a gradual decrease, especially in the case of garden rubbish
which hit a low of 15 tons. However, in 2013 all four types of waste started to
increase again and the collected glass gained its initial volume. Meanwhile, the
collection of tins and garden waste was almost equivalent (34 and 31 tons).
After a year, a substantial rise to 51 tons was seen in the amount of collected waste
paper. Meanwhile, the data for glass, tins, and gardens registered an insignificant
decline to 46 tons, 33 tons, and 27 tons each. In the last year of the period, there was

actual population and predicted population in 2000 in three countries.
As can be seen, in 1900 ,the number of residents living in Jakarta, Shanghai, and
Sao Paulo were about 8 million, 14 million and 17 million respectively. In 2000 the
population’s figure of Sao Paulo was estimated to soar up to around 22 million,
double that of Jakarta. Meanwhile, the amount of people in Shanghai was expected

the period with the exception of East’s residential area. Despite that, the area of
this town was not neither expanded nor constructed.
As can be seen, factories in the north-east corner were demolished and three
commercial buildings and an airport were constructed. Beside, the lake near the
factories was replaced by a supermarket. In terms of the south-west side of the
lake, the residential area and a local supermarket were pulled down to build four
commercial buildings. In addition, because of the increase in demand for

terms of infrastructure. SAMPLE:
Given are the maps comparing how Pancha Village changed from 2005 to 2015.
Overall, it is clear that Pancha underwent significant developments, especially in
terms of infrastructures to become a more educated and religious village.
As can be seen, there is a long road dividing the village into 2 sides, West part and
East part. Regarding the West, despite having a considerable upgrade, a block of
houses still remained unchanged. Next to that, there were 4 aligned booths
constructed with a view to meeting a large population’s demands. Besides, the
surrounding area was redeveloped in order to entertain and update the information
for residents with the introduction of 2 new television towers. Moreover, to the West
of the map, a series of electric wires was fabricated across the main road.
Having a closer look to the East, to enhance educated qualification and ensure
citizens are literate, a big primary was converted into primary and secondary school.
Furthermore, houses in the middle were demolished in order to expand the
pavements. In the Southeast, there was a religious complex with addition and
developments of pagodas. The main road experienced a renovation and was
converted into a two-way road with zebra crossing for pedestrians. Also, there were
some caution plates erected so that the residents can avoid unwanted accidents.

Given are two pie charts illustrating the answers of a questionnaire from visitors
to the Parkway Hotel for ratings of the hotel’s performance. This questionnaire
was filled by 100 people in 2005 and 2010.
Overall, there was a development in the hotel’s service that the number of
people rating “poor” and “very poor” reduced remarkably. Moreover, there was
a significant increase in the number of visitors who answered “excellent” .
As can be seen, the highest position belonged to Satisfactory allocating 45% of
total. However, in 2010 this figure declined to 17%, less than a half of its initial
figure. In terms of the data of the number of people rating Good, this data rose
from 14% in 2005 to 39% in 2010, occupying the highest position in this year.
Furthermore, the most growth statistics among the five can be seen in the
number of people who answered Excellent that it initially accounted for only
5% then made up to 28% in 2010. Meanwhile, the proportion of people rating
Poor decreased from 21% in 2005 to 12% in 2010. A similar trend can also be
seen in the percentage of people answering Very Poor that this figure consisted
of 15% in 2005 then plummeted to 5%, becoming the lowest in that year.

As can be seen, in 2005, the highest position belonged to Satisfactory
accounting for 45% of total, triple that of Very poor. However, there were 21
guests answering Poor, four times more than that of Excellent. Besides, the
number of visitors rating Good consisted of 14%.
Furthermore, in 2010, there was a significant decrease in the number of people
answering Satisfactory ‘s figure to only 17 people, equaling nearly one-third of
its 2005’s figure. In terms of the data of the number of visitors rating Good, this
data rose up to reach 39% in 2010, occupying the highest position in this
year.The statistics recording the most dramatic growth can be seen in the
number of guests who answered Excellent. The data for Excellent soared up to
28% in 2010. Surprisingly, the figures for Poor and Very poor plummeted to
12% and 4% respectively.
SAMPLE:
Given are the charts illustrating the outcomes of a survey on visitors’ rates to the
Parkway Hotel’s customer service in the years 2005 and 2010, which was given to
100 guests.
Overall, it is clear that initially, the percentage of satisfactory rate occupied the
highest position but was far overtaken by that of good rate. Furthermore, the rate
on excellent section rose considerably in the given period.
As can be seen, it is undeniable that in 2005, satisfactory rate was the most
prevalent rate among the five at 45%, followed by the poor rate which accounted
for 21%. Conspicuously, the excellent rate made up the tiniest proportion with a
mere estimation of 5%. The figures for good and very poor were approximately
equivalent which constituted 14-15%.
In the span of 5 years, the greatest acceleration of 25% was witnessed in the
proportion of good rate. Additionally, the figure for excellent rate soared up to
28%, ranking second. By contrast, the data on satisfactory rate hit a free fall to
17%. The percentage of very poor rate followed a decelerating pattern to 4%, 3
times as low as that of poor.

The diagram shows how coffee is produced. Summarize the information by selecting and
reporting the main features and make comparisons where relevant.
Given is the process illustrating steps in the coffee production.
Overall, there are 11 main steps in the process of coffee manufacturing,
beginning with the collection of coffee beans and ending at the packing stage.
As can be seen, the coffee beans are harvested by farmers and are allowed to dry
under the sun for several days. The beans are then kept in vacuum to make them
into a roast form and it is allowed to cool rapidly. Subsequently, they are put in a
grinder where they become ground coffee.
In the sixth stage of the process , the ground coffee is mixed with hot water,
then this mixture is strained and frozen. After that, the grinder is used again to
grind the frozen liquid and then dried in a vacuum. Finally, the coffee thus
obtained is packed into jars and is available to sell in the market.

As can be seen, the process commences with the coffee beans being picked by the
farmers. Subsequently, these beans then are parched in the sunny weather. The
process continues with the dried beans being roasted. In the following stage, the
beans are cooled quickly, followed by putting in the grinder where they become
ground coffee. Afterwards, the ground coffee is mixed with hot water and this
mixture is then strained and frozen, ready for the next step.
At the following stage of the process, the grinder is used once again to grind the
frozen liquid, which is then dried in a vacuum. At this point, the high temperature in
the vacuum causes the water to evaporate, leaving only the ground coffee, which is
put into different coffee containers. These coffee jars are delivered to shops and
supermarkets, ready to be sold to consumers.

Chocolate production
Given is the process illustrating chocolate production.
Overall, there are 9 main steps in the chocolate manufacturing process,
beginning with the growing of pods on the cacao trees and ending at the
moulding stage.
As can be seen, the ripe red pods come from the cacao tree. Once the pods are
ripe and red, they are harvested and the white cacao beans are removed.
Following a period of fermentation, they are then laid out on a large tray so they
can dry under the sun.
The process continues with the dried beans being roasted at a temperature of
120-150 degrees.Afterwards, the beans are crushed and separated from their
outer shell. Subsequently, this inner part that is left is pressed .In the two
remaining stages, the cacao is produced by tempering and moulding.
Given is the diagram illustrating the process of producing chocolate.
Overall, it is clear that there are nine main steps in the process of chocolate making,
beginning with harvesting the red pods that grow on cacao trees and ending at
creating complete bars of chocolate.
As can be seen, the process commences with extracting the white cacao beans from
ripe red pods. Subsequently, these white cacao beans underwent fermentation for a
period of ranging from 2 to 10 days. The process continues with the cacao beans
being sun-dried and then roasted at temperatures at 120 to 150 degrees Celsius.
This phase precedes the stage of the inner part of the roasted beans being removed
from the shell through crushing after being roughly processed using heat in high
temperature. The next involves the removed parts being conched, in which they are
pressed to produce the liquid. Once this step is completed, the resulting mixture is
tempered and moulded to become chocolate bars, ready to be eaten.

Given is the bar chart illustrating the proportion of the inhabitants who went to
watch 6 different types of sport between 2005,2010 and 2015.
Overall, the number of people watching swimming, tennis, football, basketball
increased and the opposite is true for cycling and golf. Moreover, football had
the highest views, as opposed to that of swimming.
As can be seen, from 2005 to 2010, the views of swimming remained stable at
around 1% before slightly going up to 2% in 2015. Meanwhile, in 2005, the
rates of the number of residents going to watch golf accounted for
approximately 4%. In the following 5 years, the figure for golf declined to 3%
and remained steady in the entire years of the period. In terms of the views of
tennis, in 2005, nearly 8% of the population watched this kind of sport, then the
data for this plummeted to just over 5% in 2010. The period between 2010 and
2015 witnessed the significant rise in the figure for tennis views to 10%, double
that of 2010.
Furthermore, when it comes to cycling, the number of people watching this
sport accounted for about 12% in 2005. In the next 5 years, the figure for
cycling’s views made up to over 15% before dropping to only around 10%.
Besides, in 2005, there was exactly 20% of the population watching football and
this figure consistently rose between 2010 and 2015 to peak at approximately
24% in 2015. A similar trend can be seen in the percentage of basketball views
that this data gradually soared up from nearly 8% in 2005 to reach 10% in 2015.
SAMPLE:
Given is the bar chart illustrating the proportion of the population that opt for
watching different kinds of sports events in the period from 2005 to 2015.
Overall, it is clear that football is the most prevalent sport among six categories
throughout the given period, as opposed to swimming and golf. Furthermore,
the year 2015 witnessed an acceleration in the viewership of mostly all sports.
As can be seen, in 2005, the demographic of residents watching football
occupied the highest position at 20%, ten times higher than that of swimming.
Followed by were cycling and basketball which accounted for approximately
13% and 8% respectively. In the span of 5 years, the viewership of football and
cycling experienced an increasing pattern of 5%. Meanwhile, the figure for
tennis dramatically decelerated to merely 5%.
In 5 years’ time, the quantity of viewers who watched golf remained plateau at
less than 5%. Interestingly, the figure for tennis saw the highest rise of about
5%, equivalent with that of cycling and basketball. Football was still the
most-watched sport with almost 25%, seven times higher than that of
swimming.

Spending extra hours at work is becoming more common in recent years. This
phenomenon may stem from people’s need for higher wages and their
increasing workload, and I firmly believe that this trend is bringing more cons
than pros.
These days , a lot of people are overworking due to the pressure from daily
necessities and work. In many cities, due to the escalating living cost, people are
made to work extra hours to afford lives. In other words, overworking now is
not an option but rather an obligation for many people to survive. In some other
cases, people choose to work overtime to cope with their increasing workload.
In the modern age, as competition at work is becoming more intense than ever,
many people feel an urge to push themselves harder and work longer hours to
finish their work, believing that taking on more responsibilities can help them
and their organisations thrive.
However, I hold a conviction that this tendency is bringing more disservice than
good. It is undeniable that earning more money will facilitate one’s life; such a
schedule, nevertheless, will put a person under immense pressure, which can
make his health deteriorate and cause stress-related illnesses. In a sense,
working extra hours will financially benefit people at the cost of their mental
and physical health. On the other hand, overworking can accelerate one’s
professional growth, however, will leave them little time for themselves and
their families. They are less likely to gain work-life balance and will risk the
well-being of their close relationships, exposing them to depression and
isolation in the future.
In conclusion, while it is understandable why people are spending more time at
work, I believe that the merits it brings are not worth the price one needs to pay.
SAMPLE:
In this day and age, people are working for prolonged hours to afford their daily needs.
Personally, I believe that this phenomenon stems from a highly competitive job market and
prohibitive living expenses, which may exert a detrimental influence/impact/effect on the
whole society.
Firstly, as the cost of living is unceasingly rising, workers have to work overtime in order to
meet their daily demands. Alongside the world's development, people's quality of life quality
and spending fees are constantly on the rise . With a view to meeting all those needs,they
have to struggle to afford the basic living requirements, such as food, accommodation or
children's education.Secondly, in the era of highly competitive world for the job market,
people have to work in greater hardships or they would be unemployed. Workplaces
nowadays require a good quality of productivity in order to occupy a high position,
therefore, workers have to compete with each other with a view to proving their
ability.Given the context of COVID 19 pandemic, this pandemic are setting alarm bells
ringing about the unemployment levels, therefore people have to run various errands at the
same time in order to make end meets.
Therefore, that people are overwhelmed with their workload is exerting a pernicious effect on
the whole community. First of all, people will work almost unstoppably, resulting in minimal
time to relax and spend with their family. As a consequence, their thirst for entertainment
can not be quenched,leading to a stressful mood and decelerating productivity. Secondly,
working excessively can terribly affect humans’ physical health and lead to health
deterioration.Working without resting affects not only physical but also mental problems . Last
of all, workers lack time for social relationships, especially time spent with their near and
dear. Instead of meeting their friendmates and cementing their friendship, nowadays , a lot
of workers are immersing themselves in the office and workplace to indulge in
assignments. As regards families, the children whose parents’ have to work overtime will
lack parental care eventuating in improper mindset and poor awareness.
In conclusion, overwhelming working times are being extended due to the high cost of
living, the high competition for good job positions and workplaces’ ambitions for more
success. It is highly recommended that the people should balance between their working
time and daily life in order to achieve the highest productivity and lead a healthy life
Quench one’s thirst for : thỏa mãn nhu cầu/ cơn khát của ai đó về cái gì
Cement their friendship (v): củng cố tình bạn
Indulge in: chìm đắm trong
Improper (adj): không chuẩn mực, không đúng
Given are maps illustrating the renovation of the town of Denham between 1986
and present day.
Overall, the town experienced a dramatic reconstruction, especially in terms of
infrastructure.
As can be seen, this town is divided into two parts including the West and the
East by the main road in the middle of two maps. When it comes to the West
side of the road, two houses and a farm are pulled down and replaced by more
houses to cater for the demand of accommodation. As the number of houses
increases, the road is expanded to the left.
Furthermore, as regards the East side of the road, there are also many houses
constructed with the demolition of the farm . Besides, the main road is
lengthened to make the way leading to these houses. In terms of gardens and the
large house , the total area of them has been declined and transformed to the
retirement home. As for the primary school, two more buildings are constructed
in order to supply education for more people in this town. Despite the changes
were mentioned above, there are two things remained stable comprising the post
office in the West side of road and the bridge situating in the end of town’s road.
SAMPLE:
Given are two maps illustrating the differences in the town of Denham in the period
from 1986 to present.
Overall, it is clear that this town underwent significant changes in the given period
from a farming town to a residential town. Noticeable increment sees in the housing,
which indicates a higher population.
As can be seen, the town is located on the West side of the river Stoke. In 1986, in the
North-East, there was a farmland, which is a house for cows. However, nowadays, that
farmland is demolished and there is hardly anything in the present day. Additionally,
the road has been enlarged with more additional ways. In 1986, there was a tiny small
school to the north-east of the town. Notwithstanding, at present, it has been
upgraded and enlarged dramatically. A large house and gardens were pulled down
with a view to paving the way for a retirement home for the elderly.
Furthermore, as the population of the town is on the rise, additional houses were
constructed in the positions of houses and farmland.Moreover, to cater for the
population’s demand for shopping, new shops were constructed next to the post
office . Despite those important changes, the post office and the bridge remain
plateau through the whole period.
The diagram below shows the environmental issues raised by a product over its
life cycle.
Given is the diagram illustrating the process of increasing environmental issues
by a product over its circulation.
Overall, there are seven distinct stages in the process, beginning with planning
and design and ending with recycling or disposal.
As can be seen, at the first stage of the process, products and goods are planned
as well as designed on a computer. Afterwards, this step needs some
consumption of materials and the resources of energy including fossil fuels to
manufacture. After that, the goods are produced in the factories before packing
and distributing them on the market.
Furthermore, the life of cycling products continues with putting up for sale in
shops or supermarkets. Consequently, the products and goods are used by
customers. At the end of the process, the products used by customers can either
be disposed of or recycled. If the products are recycled, they are continued at
the second step in the life cycling of the product.
The process continues with the A being ….
SAMPLE:
Given is the diagram illustrating the lifecycle of a product and
consequences due to its manufacturing.
Overall, there are seven main steps in the product manufacturing process,
commencing with planning and design and ending at recycling or
disposing.
In the first stage of the process, with a view to fabricating products that
meet customer’s needs, the product is carefully planned and designed.
Subsequently, materials and energy sources used for the product are
estimated. Afterwards, the product is manufactured in factories. After being
finished, the product is packaged and distributed.
Following this, the product is sold to consumers. The process continues
with the product’s being used by domestic units. When the product is out
of order, the customers can opt for disposing of it or recycling it. If the
consumers choose to recycle, the rest of the product will be converted into
materials and energy sources for other products.

1. Some people say that economic growth is the only way to end world poverty
and hunger. Others say that economic growth is damaging the environment and
should stop .Discuss both views and give your own opinion
partly agree
over-exploitation of natural resources
loss of biodiversity
verge of extinction
dispose untreated waste
p1:
Solid economic progress => investment in agriculture => innovative farming
methods => increasing productivity and yield successful crops => less
starvation
Economic prosperity => reducing unemployment rate since companies need
to expand their operations ( mo rong quy mo) => creating more job
opportunities
P2:
Environment can be negatively affected
Industrialization + economic growth => alarming environmental pollution
Factories discharge untreated waste into the sea
HOWEVER, the detrimental impact can be greatly limited if:
+) Government impose heavy taxes and fine on companies that contribute
to worsen the environmental problem
+) Corporations invest in environmentally friendly technology and show
more concern for our nature mother
Economic development is obviously one of the top priorities of any government
across the globe. While some individuals believe this growl has a detrimental
impact on the environment, I would argue that this development is the only way
to abolish poverty and starvation.
On the one hand, there are several reasons why it is claimed that economic
growth decreases impoverishment. The first reason is a solid economic progress
would have enough money to make more investments in agriculture and invent
some innovative farming methods. Therefore , these methods can help us to
increase productivity and also yield successful crops to have more food
provided to people and demolish cravation as well.Besides that, economic
prosperity can reduce unemployment rate since companies need to expand their
operations and create more job opportunities.For instance , the economy of
VietNam has grown rapidly in recent years and many foreign companies such
as Shopee, Samsung invest in my country and help more residents have a job.
On the other hand, the environment can be negatively affected by economic
development. The main one is a wealthy economy associated with
industrialisation alarming environment pollution. Moreover , some factories
,
discharge untreated waste into the sea and river
causing devastating effects on
the environment. For example, in 2015, the sewage disposal of a company
named Pho Mu Sa in my province resulted in the mass death of fish in the sea.
In conclusion, despite the fact that economic prosperity can help many people
increase their quality of life, it has an adverse impact on Earth. However , the
detrimental impact can be greatly limited if the government imposes heavy
taxes and fines on companies that contribute to worsen the environmental
problem. Also, the government stimulates corporations to invest in
environmentally friendly technology and show more concern for our mother
nature.

Economic development is obviously one of the top priorities of any government
across the globe. While some individuals believe this growl has a detrimental
impact on the environment, I would argue that this development is the only way
to abolish poverty and starvation.
On the one hand, there are several reasons why it is claimed that economic
growth eliminates hunger and alleviates poverty. The first reason is a solid
economic progress would lead to more investments in agriculture and some
innovative farming methods. Therefore , these methods can help farmers to
increase productivity and also yield successful crops, which will improve the
situation of food shortage.Besides that, economic prosperity can reduce
unemployment rate since companies need to expand their operations.For
instance , the Vietnam’s economy has grown rapidly in recent years, resulting in
many foreign and some multinational companies participates in Vietnam’s
economic market.
On the other hand, the environment can be negatively affected by economic
development. Firstly, a prosperous economy is associated with environmental
pollution. This is because of the mass consumption of natural resources in
manufacture, leading to extensive exhaust emission .Moreover , some factories
discharge untreated waste into the sea and river, causing devastating effects on
the environment. For example, in 2015, the sewage disposal of a company
named Formusa in Ha Tinh province resulted in the mass death of fish in the
sea.
In conclusion, despite the fact that economic prosperity can help many people
increase their quality of life, it has an adverse impact on Earth. However , the
detrimental impact can be greatly limited if the government imposes heavy
taxes and fines on companies that contribute to worsen the environmental
problem.
SAMPLE:
Nowadays , as the world is unceasingly developing , economic growth
plays a key role in that world's development. Therefore, many people
hold the viewpoint that the acceleration in the economy are of great
significance since it is the optimal way to deal with poverty and hunger
while others claim that a growing economy is destructive for the natural
surroundings. In my opinion, economic growth should be developed
along with some solutions.
On the one hand, many people are under the statement that economic
growth may put an end to the world’s poverty and hunger. Solid
economic progress can provide human beings with a lot of benefits such
as agricultural development or employment. First, more investment in
agriculture will be made, which paves the way for more innovative
farming methods to be taken. As a result, productivity will be boosted,
leading to more successful crops. Starvation will therefore be lessened.
Second, economic prosperity will set a solid foundation for the decrease
in unemployment rate. Thanks to the companies’ expansion in their
operations, employers will have to hire a larger number of employees,
creating more job opportunities for residents.
On the other hand, others argue that economic growth is posing a detrimental
threat to the environment. Increasing industrialization can exert a pernicious
effect on the air quality due to the untreated discharge of harmful emission into
the atmosphere of most factories. Factories also dispose of untreated water into
the sea and put the oceans’ water quality in grave peril . As regards to forests,
the increasing level of deforestation is putting the forests’ lives in jeopardy, in
which most trees are destroyed to expand lands for industrial buildings
.However, this issue could be curbed should the government impose heavy taxes
and fine on companies that contribute to worsen the environmental problems
.Corporations should also invest in environmentally friendly technology and
show more concern for nature mother.
In conclusion, it is obvious that a growing economy has its own merits and
demerits.It is highly recommended that government and corporations should
make an all-out effort to balance between boosting world economy and protecting the
environment

The charts below give information about travel to and from the UK, and
about the most popular countries for UK residents to visit.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main
features, and make comparisons where relevant.
Given is the line graph illustrating the changing in the numbers of foreign
visitors in UK and that of British citizens travelling abroad from 1979 to
1999.Meanwhile, the bar chart depicts the quantity of UK residents in five
countries which they visited more popularly
Overall, what stands out from the line graph is that there were upward trends in
both the numbers of British visitors outside and that of international travellers
choosing UK in their vacations over the 20- year period. Moreover, UK citizens
in France were bigger than in the other countries.
As can be seen, in terms of the line graph, at the beginning of this period, the
figures for UK travellers and foreigners were small, at about 14 and 10 millions
respectively, they then rose slightly in 1985. After that, the data for British
visitors went up dramatically and reached the highest point in 1999, at
approximately 53 millions whereas for foreign tourists experienced a gradual
rise to somewhere in the vicinity of 28 millions and which resulted in a bigger
gap between them although the former numbers were always higher than others
through this period.
Furthermore,as regards the bar chart, the population of them in France was the
crowdest, accounting for above 10 millions, the second highest rank was Spain,
at roughly 9 millions while that in Turkey was the smallest , which worked out
just under a fourth of the last amount, at about 2 millions.

The line graph illustrates the number of UK residents going abroad from the UK
and overseas inhabitants visiting the UK between 1979 and 1999, while the bar
chart depicts how many UK residents travelled to 5 most famous nations in
1999.
Overall, the number of people visits to and from the UK increased and there
were more visits abroad by UK residents than visits to the UK by foreigners
throughout the period . Moreover, the most popular paid visit by the UK
residents was to France in 1999.
As can be seen, in the beginning, the number of visits abroad by UK residents
was roughly 12 millions and that of visits to the UK by overseas residents was
exactly 10 millions. There were gradual growls in both these two figures to
reach around 51 millions and 28 millions respectively.
Furthermore, in 1999, France was visited by approximately 12 millions UK
residents, six times higher than that of Turkey. In terms of Spain, this country
had about 9 millions visitors from the UK , followed by USA and Greece at
nearly 4 millions and 3 millions correspondingly.
SAMPLE:
Given are the line illustrating travels to and from the UK in the period from 1979 to 1999 and
the bar chart demonstrating the most prevalent nations travelled by UK travellers in 1999.
Overall, it is clear that in the given period, the amount of visiting abroad by UK citizens was
initially higher than the number of visitors to the UK. Furthermore, in 1999, most UK residents
travelled to France while the reverse was true for Turkey.
As can be seen, in 1979 the number of UK people travelling abroad and the figure for
overseas visitors to the UK constituted 12 million and 10 million correspondingly. Both two
figures witnessed a significant acceleration. The number of travels to the UK by foreign
citizens UNDERWENT a gradual rise, peaking at 25 million in 1999.Meanwhile, the figure for
UK travellers to other countries soared up through the whole period and reached its zenith at
approximately 50 millions.
Furthermore, in 1999, the number of UK citizens travelling to France occupied the highest
position of around 12 million , as opposed to Turkey with just around 2 million. The figure for
Spain accounted almost 10 millions, two and three times higher than that of the USA and
Greece, which made up 4 and 3 million respectively.
Given is the bar chart illustrating how much time did people in the developing
world worked between 1998 and 2003.
Overall, the number of hours spent by residents in Mongolia at work was the
highest, as opposed to that of South Africa. Moreover, in terms of extra time
spent at work by women, the figure for Mauritius occupied the lowest position,
the opposite was true for Bernin.
As can be seen, the average working hours in most countries were above 6
hours. In Mongolia, both genders spent over 8 hours at work , much higher
when compared with that of other countries. Conversely, median employees in
South Africa and Benin need to work for just about 4.8 hours and 5.8 hours
respectively.
Furthermore, in terms of average time spent at work by women, the data of
Mauritius registered the lowest among these countries. Despite having the
highest median hours spent at work, the figure for Mongolia in additional hours
ranked just after Mautinus. Also, in spite of minimal working time ,the average
extra hours that women in Bernin worked was the highest at 2 hours 45 minutes.
Sample:
Given is the bar chart illustrating the labouring hours in both genders in eight
countries from 1998 to 2003.
Overall, a sizable number of the time was spent at work by both males and females
in Mongolia. Additionally, the extra hours which Benin women contributed was
more than in other countries.
As can be seen, Mongolia accounted for the largest amount of working hours, being
recorded at over 8 hours. Other countries had the number of hours spent by men
and women at work between 6 and 7 hours. Furthermore, less than 6 hours were
allocated to only two countries, Benin and South Africa. Especially, South Korea’s
working hours stood at around 5 hours a day, ranking lowest.
In addition, Benin women used the highest extra hours at work, averaging out at 2
hours 25 minutes, which was significantly higher than the others; as opposed to
Mauritius, being at 24 minutes. Following were Mexico and India, which was at 1
hour 45 minutes and 1 hour 5 minutes respectively. Meanwhile, the amount of
additional hours allocated to work by females in South Korea, the Republic of
Korea, Madagascar were fairly the same, ranging from 51 to 59 minutes. Although
Mongolia’s working hours outnumbered other countries, its extra hours were the
second-lowest. In addition, the average amount of hours
for the workforce in both genders was above 6 hours while the extra time for work
by women was 1 hour 9 minutes.

each town. Others, however, believe that it is a waste of money since the
public can use the Internet at home to obtain information. Discuss both
sides and give your own opinion
-
FUNDED LIBRARIES:
+) There are many people really want to gain knowledge but cannot afford the
prohibitive library fees as well as the modern devices
+) necessary to encourage the habit of reading, which is declining in this era of
modern tech
+) suitable place for the elderly, especially those are not financially-capable who

(dân trí ) among people
-
INTERNET:
+) convenient, available compared to the libraries
+) massive wealth of free knowledge
+) multimedia experiences: texts, videos, audio, graphics => not only is
obtaining new knowledge useful but also full of pleasure.

OPINION:
Governments should provide prudent funds ( đầu tư thông minh/ kĩ lưỡng ) into
the library since the number of people using Internet is constantly on the rise
In the era of the development of technology, the habit of reading books and
acquiring knowledge from learning through paper resources has declined in
recent years. Some people argued that the government should subsidise free
libraries in each town. However, a school of thought holds that it is a waste of
money because of the information available on the internet.
There are some compelling reasons why the libraries’ fees should be abolished.
On the individual level, the library fees demolition is helpful for people who
really want to gain knowledge but cannot afford the prohibitive library fees as
well as the modern devices, especially children coming from underprivileged
families. On the societal level, providing free libraries is necessary to encourage
the habit of reading, which is declining in this era of modern tech. This may act
as a precursor to increase the literacy levels among people and lead to a
civilised society.
However, despite the aforementioned benefits, I would contend that the
provision of free libraries is a waste. Firstly, the internet is conducive to
enhancing online resources from all over the world at any time, why a library’s
publications cannot subsidise up-to-date information as the internet . Moreover,
the fast-developed internet around us shows the possibility that many people do
not need a library to attain information. We can just move our fingers, tap the
screen of our phones, and get the answer to whatever we are curious about.
In conclusion , the potential benefits of abolishing library fees make it seem like
a good idea. I believe that the government should provide prudent funds into
the library since the number of people using the Internet is constantly on the
rise.
SAMPLE:
n the era of ever-advancing technology, people are getting out of the habit of
reading. Some people hold the viewpoint that free libraries should be built in
each town. Others state that governments should stop splurging money on
libraries as people can make use of the Internet to be au corant with all the
information. In my opinion, governments should invest money on funded
libraries.
On the one hand, many people believe that the Internet can be used with a view
to obtaining information instead of libraries. Firstly, using the cutting-edge
online searching method can prove to be more convenient and available in
comparison to the libraries. People can easily access to the Internet within a few
mouse clicks instead of wasting time on going to the libraries. Secondly, the
Internet is believed to be useful because of its wealth of knowledge. Almost
every information is available on the Internet, what is more, this information is
up-to-the-minute so people can always be aucorant with the latest knowledge.
Last but not least, multimedia experiences such as texts, images, videos. clips,
graphics are accessible to people rather than texts and sometimes images of
books. People can gain an in-depth insight in their information through various
forms , therefore , they will comprehend the knowledge more properly
On the other hand, I believe that free-charged libraries should be constructed in
pursuance of accelerating the reading habit of human beings which are declining
due to cutting-edge technological devices. People should be encouraged to be in
the habit of reading books instead of immersing themselves in the virtual world
as books are the production of all the precious knowledge our ancestors gained
throughout the history of humanity. Also, many people want to quench their
thirst for knowledge but they are not financially-capable and unable to afford
exorbitant modern devices. A demographic of people around the world are not
able to purchase such cutting-edge technology so that they can not satiate their
hunger of knowledge because libraries’ quality are reducing due to the
technological world. Lastly, libraries are suitable for elderly who are not really
tech-savvy can spend their free time reading books in libraries. Elderly are
usually technophobe so that they can not access to modern technology
.Therefore the government should provide them with free libraries.
In conclusion, funded libraries should be constructed more as they can prove to
be more useful. It is high recommended that governments should pay more
attention to reading habit of people which is decelerating

Given is the pie chart illustrating the proportion of energy used in each of seven
categories in a typical Australian household, the table depicting different
amounts of electricity used in various numbers of people in the house.
Overall, heating and cooling is the occupant using the electricity most, and also
more people in the house will use more energy.
As can be seen, from the pie chart , the energy used for heating and cooling is
the highest among the seven at 38%. Besides, the ratio of water heating
accounts for 25%, ranking the second. Interestingly, lighting and freezers use
the same percentage of electricity at 7%. Moreover , the proportion of energy
used for cooking and stand-by power are also nearly the same at 4% and 3%
respectively. As for other appliances, the data for it is 16%.
Furthermore,as regards the table, the amount of electricity used increases as the
number of people in the house rises. When there is only one person, the amount
of electricity is about 5000-6500 Kwh per year. If the number of people comes
to two and three, the amount of energy used makes up around 6000- 8000 Kwh
per year and 7500-10000 Kwh per year, correspondingly.In terms of the number
of people is six or more, the amount of electricity is almost three times bigger
than that of electricity used in one person's house, with 12000-16000 Kwh each
year.

As can be seen, from the pie chart , the percentage of energy that a typical
Australian household spends for heating and cooling is the highest at 38%.
Besides, the ratio of water heating used accounts for 25%, ranking the second.
Interestingly,there are two equal parts of the energy used are cooking and
stand-by power at 7%. Moreover , the average household in Australia spends
4% and 3% of energy for cooking and stand-by power respectively . As for
other appliances, the data for them is 16%.

SAMPLE:
Given are the pie chart illustrating the energy usage for different purposes in a
typical Australian household and the table demonstrating the amount of
electricity used categorising by number of occupants.
Overall, the majority of energy consumption of a normal household in Australia
is from heating and cooking. Moreover, the amount of electricity rises
proportionally to the number of people.
As can be seen in the pie chart, it is conspicuous that heating and cooking
occupies the highest position at 38%, followed by water heating and other
appliances which accounts for 25% and 16% respectively. What is more, the
smallest proportion of energy usage is stand-by power which stood at 3%, 1%
lower than that of cooking. Additionally, freezers and lightning’s percentages
are equivalent at 7%.
Looking at the table, it is clear that the higher the number of occupants is, the
more electricity is used. With houses that include one or two people, the amount
of KWH annually is from 5000-6500 and 6000-8000 correspondingly.
Moreover, 7500-10000 KWH is the yearly average electricity consumed of
three-occupant houses. Houses that consist of more than 6 residents require at
least 12000 KWH.
5. Cycling is more environmentally friendly than other forms of transport.
However, it is no longer the main form of transport. What are the reasons? What
could be done to encourage the use of bicycles among the wider population?
●
bicycle’s weakness in mobility ( tính lưu động ) compared to other forms of
transport
● Cars, motor are much more convenient, time-saving in case of
long-distance journeys
● Biking is subject to ( phải chịu ) extreme weather condition and
climate, such as downpours ( mưa to) and heat waves ( đợt nóng)
● Cycling is also physically demanding => unsuitable for person who
are not really strong
WAYS TO PROMOTE CYCLING:
●
paving cycling lanes ( làn đươngf dành cho ng đi xe đạp) => more safety
=> deal with people’s concern of cycling through high-speed vehicles
●
Design a community where schools, malls, supermarkets are accessible to
residents within a proximity ( một khoảng rất gần) by bike
●
Raise citizens’ awareness of the merits ( lợi ích) of cycling by organize
meeting, distribute leaflets ( phát tờ rơi)
These days, although riding a bicycle is clearly a better way to protect the
environment than any other types of vehicles , not many people worldwide
prefer this means of transport. There are several causes of this unpopularity, and
some solutions could be proposed to promote the usage of bicycles.
There are two compelling reasons explaining the uncommon use of bicycles.
Firstly, since modern life is getting much busier than in the past , individuals
nowadays want to spend as little time on transport as possible. Therefore, they
prefer to use other kinds of vehicles, such as cars or motorbikes which are much
more convenient, time-saving in case of long-distance journeys. Besides,
cycling is also more physically demanding than riding a motorbike or driving a
car. This tends to discourage people from choosing this method , especially on a
hot and sunny day or when they have to travel a long distance and do not have
enough strength .
However, several solutions could be implemented to tackle this issue. The first
solution would be to make it more costly to own a motorbike or car. This can be
done by increasing the price of petrol or raising the tax on these vehicles. As a
result, more people would choose bicycles as their primary means of transport.
Additionally, more lanes should be built to serve only cyclists, which would
make it faster to travel with bicycles. More importantly, organising meetings
and distributing leaflets to raise citizens’ awareness of the merits of cycling and
the harmful effects of motorbikes and cars on the environment as well.
In conclusion, there are some reasons why bicycles are becoming less popular in
today’s world, and solutions should be produced to stimulate this
environmentally friendly means of transport.

The maps below show the center of a small town called Birshire as it is now,
and plans for its development.’
Given are two maps comparing the centre of the tiny town named Brishire as it
is now and plants for its transformations.
Overall, the town will have undergone considerable development after
construction takes place, especially in terms of infrastructure.
As can be seen ,when it comes to the right side of the map, all farms from
Brishire will have been demolished in the days to come. Griffiths Farms, which
is located in the top right corner of the map, is going to be replaced by the
supermarket to cater for the demand for shopping of the residents. Meanwhile,
Hoolahan Farm, which is situated on the right side of McGoldrick road will
make way for a car lot . Besides, the open field situated on the bottom right of
the map will also be reconstructed into a sport centre as the demand of
entertainment of inhabitants will increase. Moreover, apart from an addition of a
roundabout at the conjunction between McGoldrick road and That road, Corbin
road is going to be extended beyond That street.
Furthermore, as regards the left side of the road, many shops will be knocked
down to pave a way for more houses to cater for the increase of population with
demands of accommodations. In addition, because of the rise in the number of
houses, the road leading to these houses is going to be expanded. Moreover , the
Farmer’s Market located near the Corbie road will no longer exist. Interestingly,
despite aforementioned changes of the town, the old houses and public park will
remain plateaued.
Sample:
Given are the maps illustrating the changes of a small town named Birshire
at present and in the future.
Overall, it is conspicuous that the town is planned to undergo a plethora of
alterations from a farming town to an industrial and commercial one.
As transparent from the diagrams, at present, to the West of the Mcgoldrick
Road there are few shops, which are predicted to be demolished in order to
pave the way for more residential buildings. What is more, the number of
residential houses is currently 7, which will witness a twofold increase in
the foreseeable future. Moreover, there will be a roundabout in the center of
a crossroad connecting That Street and Mcgoldrick Road.
Additionally, to the East of the map, it is forecasted that there will be more
modern facilities compared to present. The Griffiths farm, which is now
situated on the corner of the upper right-hand side, is estimated to be
knocked down to facilitate the building of a new supermarket. Owing to the
construction of the supermarket and the burgeoning ownership of cars, a
car park is planned to be built in the position of the present Hoolahan Farm.
Lastly, there will also be a sports center, which will replace the open field in
the southeast of the map. Despite those changes, the public park is
forecasted to remain untouched.
HOMEWORK:
The media should include more stories which report good news. Do you
agree or disagree with this statement?
Partly agree vì good news are tremendously beneficial, however, people have
the right to be informed of the negative sides happening in their daily life.
-
GOOD NEWS:
+) convey meaningful messages and values => help viewers having a positive
attitude towards life
+) In other words, should more positive news be shown => people will be
encouraged to stay optimistic, supportive and happy
+) In terms of education, stories about outstanding achievement will act as a
motivation for people to strive (cố gắng) and improve themselves
-
BAD NEWS:
+) people must be well aware of problems and social evils around them to take
action accordingly
+) news about outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, natural disaster must be
informed to the population, which will help them have a careful preparation
+) Keeping abreast of ( = cập nhật: NOTE) these cases might also help people
prevent involving themselves in such situation
It is argued that news coverage should focus more on good news. I partly agree
with this view because good news is tremendously beneficial. However, people
have the right to be informed of the negative sides happening in their daily life.
To commence with , there is a good case for believing that good news is
under-reported. It is rare to read a positive story which makes front-page
headlines. Yet it is undoubtedly essential that the public is kept informed about
some of the good things which are happening in the world. In recent years, for
example, breakthroughs have been achieved in the treatment of certain types of
cancer. It should form part of editorial policy to carry stories such as these
because they have a positive impact on public morale.
However, it would be misguided to introduce restrictions on the reporting of
tragic news events. Civil wars and natural disasters, for example, may sadden
viewers and readers, but they are an unfortunate reality of the world today.
While sensational journalism may at times exaggerate, the public needs to keep
abreast of these happenings, to have some informed knowledge of contemporary
issues. Sadly, for instance, there is relatively little good news to report on the
host of environmental problems facing the world. If these problems are ignored
by the media, in the interests of reporting cheerful news, then the chances will
surely increase of an ecological crisis. The media must act as watchdogs in the
fight against climate change and environmental degradation.
In conclusion, while I agree that crucial positive messages should be given more
publicity, it is also necessary for the media to continue reporting all the
significant bad news in the world today.

Given is the line graph illustrating the revenue among four brands of coffee
shops in New York in the previous year.
Overall, all four cafes followed an erratic pattern over the period. Moreover,
while the tea room experienced a downward trend, the other three increased
substantially in revenue.
As can be seen, in January, the Tea Room stood at the highest point of income,
at 160000$. Whereas, the income of Cafe Cool was only about 30000$,
occupying the lowest point among the four. However, over the twelves months
of the year, while the revenue of The Tea Room dropped rapidly to around
50000 in the end of the year, the figure for Cafe Cool soared up to 120000$ in
the last month of the period , surpassing that of The Tea Room .
Furthermore, in January , the income of Internet Express and Wi-fi Cafe were
100000$ and 50000$ respectively. The period between January and December
witnessed a significant climb in Wi-fi Cafe’s data to peak at approximately
190000$ in December, becoming the highest among the four. As regards
Internet Express, its revenue slightly increased to end up at nearly 140000$ in
the last month of the year.

People think that the best way to reduce crime is to give longer prison
sentences. Others believe that there are other alternative solutions for
reducing crime.
Discuss both views and give your opinion on this topic. You should write at
least 250 words.
In the modern era, the crime rate is unstoppable and incalculable regardless of
place and time. Therefore, a school of thought holds that the longer punishment
would stop those crimes at a low rate. Hence, I would like to discuss my point
of view before coming to a conclusion.
To commence with, even though a longer prison sentence is a hard punishment,
it has failed to decrease various criminal activities in society. This type of
fearless punishment makes culprits attempt more illegal actions. Because they
know that the government would provide healthcare support and good living
conditions during imprisonment. Additionally, the Human Rights Commission
may come forward to offer support for the accused person. For instance,in
South Korea, a rape case had been reported several years ago. However, the
culprit who committed this crime got a commutation in punishment when the
court found that he is a disabled man. These shreds of evidence show that the
number of crimes may not be mitigated only by sentencing long-term
imprisonment.
On the other hand, punishments such as public beheading,stoning,amputation
and lashing are alternative ways that are found as effective in reducing serious
criminal offences in many countries. Strict implementation of these kinds of
actions could make a person think twice prior to taking a wrong decision. To
illustrate, Saudi Arabia is known for fewer crimes especially against women as
it enforces strong and strict criminal law punishments.Therefore, government
authorities in each and every country need to discuss the benefits of alternative
punishments and try to implement them as early as possible.
(đoạn 2 được 3 câu)
To conclude, it is acceptable to find different ways while punishing the culprit
rather than relying on a single one like imprisonment because it can ensure a
crime-free and peaceful life in society.

In the modern era, the crime rate is on the rise regardless of place and time.
While a school of thought holds that the longer punishment helps alleviate the
crime rate. I believe that there are more effective solutions to the problem.
On the one hand, those who think that longer sentences could reduce crime rate
base their argument on two compelling reasons. Firstly, they argue that such a
solution would frighten criminals off repeating crimes, thus reducing the risk of
reoffending. This can be explained by the harsh environment and sub- human
condition in the prison. Besides, for those who have criminal intentions, this
policy may act as a deterrent , making them think twice before indulging in
illegal acts. .From my perspective, longer prison sentences seem effective only
for those who already commit a crime or are about to do so, but this approach
fails to promote educational values which can tackle crime for the root.
On the other hand, since the approach mentioned above fails to be the best key
to crime reduction, I believe other alternatives have much stronger preventative
values and thus are more effective crime-fighting solutions. To commence with,
the government should put more effort into solving the unemployment problem,
which is thought to be inextricably linked to the crime issues. This can be done
by providing adults with vocational training and job opportunities, enabling
them to escape the poverty trap. In addition, crime education should be included
in their school curriculum to ensure that younger generations are fully aware of
the seriousness of violating the law and ways to refrain from it. As part of this
scheme, reformed prisoners should be invited as the speakers who inform
students about the lifelong consequences of crimes, dispelling any notion of
criminal intent.
To sum up, while acknowledging the feasibility of longer prison sentences in
tackling crime, I side with those who choose the mentioned preventative
measures to address the root of the problem.
SAMPLE:
In this day and age, the delinquency ratio is increasing at an alarming rate, which
may take a heavy toll on the safety of many residents. Therefore, many people are
under the assumption that the most optimal measure to curb the increase in crime
rate is to prolong the prisoners' sentences while others hold a firm conviction that
there are other feasible solutions that should be taken into consideration. From my
perspective, although both of the two parties have their own point, I agree more with
the latter school of notion.
On the one hand, it is conspicuous that extending the imprisonment sentences plays
a pivotal role in decreasing crime ratio. Obviously, that the prison sentences are
prolonged will be tremendously beneficial as this will make criminals, after being
released from prisons, less likely to recommit their crimes. It is incontrovertible that
prisoners have to endure a hard life in a harsh environment where they have to do a
plethora of labor-intensive jobs such as cleaning the turfs or digging lands. These
practices will act as a lesson for them and discard all their intentions of recommitting
crimes as they are afraid of being made to live in such an environment again. What
is more, the prolonged imprisonment will act as a deterrent to many people who
intend to commit crimes. By knowing that they will have to serve a long imprisonment
sentence, these people will be discouraged to break the laws for fear of being
imprisoned for such a long time. ( for fear of being marginalized and isolated from
the society for a long time.
On the other hand, there is no denying that there are a variety of other methods that
can be taken with a view to tackling crime. First and foremost, parents and teachers
should warn their children against committing crimes at an early stage of their lives
and advise them to do nice activities.Therefore, children will know how to share,
learn how to behave and solve conflicts without resorting to violence and understand
the detrimental repercussions of committing crimes, hence raising their awareness.
Second, the societies and governments should make a coordinated endeavor to
support families who are living below the poverty line. It is undeniable that at present,
one of the main culprits behind the ever-increasing crime rate is lack of financial
capabilities, which will make them incapable of paying for their daily needs and as a
result, resort to violence and crimes for money. Therefore, if the universities provide
poverty-stricken students with scholarships to pursue higher education, corporations
offer career opportunities for destitute workers and governments provide poor
families with monetary support, the crime rate will significantly decline.
offer free education for the underprivileged, who make up the …
In conclusion, although letting people serve longer prison sentences is of paramount
significance when it comes to reducing crimes, other viable measures should be
taken simultaneously.
SAMPLE:
Given the increasing trend of social evils, it is crucial to work towards a proper
long-term solution. While many individuals opine that longer confinement is
liable to reduce crime rates, I believe that there are alternatives to tackle the
issue of growing crimes.
On the one hand, it is indisputable that rigorous punishments such as longer
imprisonment sentences serve as a deterrent for criminals in many ways. Firstly,
it can be regarded as a warning that heinous, antisocial acts are intolerable. For
instance, life imprisonment is given to the murderers and gruesome assaulters,
which eases to give a clear signal to the society that bestiality will receive
highest degrees of punishments. This will ensure the proper law imposement. In
addition, this policy guarantees that these people do not roam freely in the
society and commit more crimes along their way. Thus, it reduces the threat to
the society from these antisocial characters. To illustrate, in a recent survey
conducted in Mumbai, it was clearly shown that awarding longer imprisonment
of 10 years for sexual assault cases lead to an 18-percent decrease in the
incidents of sexual crimes.
On the other hand, instead of this reactive measure, other preventative methods
can be taken to surmount this social issue. First of all, it is important to delve
deeply into the common situations which give rise to a criminal and prevent
those from occurring to other individuals. For example, deprivation is
considered to be the prime reason for a person to commit a crime. Therefore, if
the government ensures standard health care, housing and education for the
citizens, the incidents of human trafficking and robbery will possibly decline.
To demonstrate this, Singapore has very low crime rates because of the
infrastructure and financial support extended by the State to its citizens.
Secondly, it is proven that involving the underprivileged in job orientation
activities might be helpful in reducing the crime rates. For instance, a survey
conducted in the US in 2016 clearly showed that the crime rates drastically fell
by 40% when children of single-parent families, school dropouts, and drug
addicts were given vocational training so that they could earn their livelihood.
In conclusion, longer imprisonment might be efficient, yet there are numerous
effective available solutions to the current crime rates. Thus, it is indispensable
for the authorities to consider the alternatives in order to raise citizens’ living
standards.

The flow chart illustrates the consequences of deforestation
Given is the flow chart illustrating the consequences of deforestation
Overall, there are four direct effects which eventually result in flooding and loss
of biodiversity.
As can be seen, the first immediate effect is the compression of soil by heavy
logging equipment which makes it hard and “ baked”. As a result , the rainwater
runs off and causes flooding.
Furthermore, another consequence of clear cutting of forests is reduction in the
number of roots which hold the topsoil. Besides, the third crucial effect as per
the chart is burning, which can be deliberate or accidental. Extensive fire
consumes a lot of waste wood from logging and destroys the micro-organism
feeding them. The final consequence is the inability of plants to return enough
moisture to the air. This results in decreased precipitation which increases
drought. Moreover, the end result of all last three aforementioned effects is
degraded vegetation and less biodiversity.

SAMPLE:
Given
is
the
diagram
demonstrating
the
detrimental
repercussions
of
deforestation.
Overall, it is conspicuous that cutting down trees in the forests will eventuate in 4
immediate consequences, which will make a contribution to larger-scale issues.
As can be seen, as the result of deforestation, the soil will be compressed by a
large amount of logging equipment prior to turning into a more solid and baked
form. Owing to this, the water which comes from downpour runs off and
subsequently raises the sea level and causes flooding.
What is more, clear cutting of forests will eventually make the top soil become
vulnerable to be held in place due to the reduction in roots and then erodes.
Another immediate repercussion is the increase in potential risk of deliberate and
accidental burning, which will destroy the waste wood from logging and
accelerate the chances of microorganisms eating pernicious compounds such as
waste lost. Additionally, the last consequence of deforestation is the moisture to
air of plants becoming exacerbated. Consequently, the process of precipitation
will be lessened, leading to the increase in drought. Due to the erosion of top soil,
drought increase and waste loss that feed microorganisms, pioneer species move
in and make the vegetation degraded, resulting in less biodiversity.
At present we rely on oil for most of our energy needs. However, oil is a
fossil fuel and causes air pollution, and it will eventually run out. Nuclear
energy is the only practical and clean source of energy for the world. Do
you agree?
You should write at least 250 words.
Fossil fuel running out is paramount of extension use by humans and it is
mentonous for humans to run daily. As people know that fuel burning creates
more air pollution which has an effect on climate and global warming. While a
school of thought holds that replacing fossil fuel by nuclear energy is an
effective solution to this problem. In my point of view, it can’t be denied that
nuclear energy has some benefits but it seems to leave some negative effects as
well.
On the one hand, there are two compelling reasons why nuclear energy seems to
be a good alternative energy to other kinds of energy.First of all, nuclear energy
is cleaner than oil.coal.gas,etc because it produces no smoke,emission, which
we may inhale when we use fossil fuels. Smoke from oil,coal,gas can lead to air
pollution and some diseases such as lung cancer,bronchitis,asthma,etc. That's
why it is obviously healthier to use nuclear energy. Adding to this, nuclear
energy is surprisingly efficient.For example, a nuclear power factory can
provide energy to the earth using within 2 years.
On the other hand, besides some advantages above, nuclear energy has
numerous disadvantages. Firstly,using nuclear energy is very very dangerous
because reactors produce nuclear waste products emitting dangerous
radiation,which is extremely harmful for the body and can cause death. In case
there's a mistake made by human or technology, it can lead to unexpected
horrible accidents, which may destroy the whole country using it or more than
that. For instance,in 1957,nuclear waste buried at a dump site in Russia's Ural
Mountains, near Moscow, mysteriously exploded and caused the death of
dozens of people. Secondly, nuclear energy encourages nuclear arms race,which
may threaten peace since its devastation is unexpectedly large, destroying not
only countries taking part in war but other countries as well. In addition, nuclear
energy is so expensive that not every country can use it. It costs a lot of money
and requires modern technology. Lastly, there's lots of other sources of energy
that can replace nuclear energy such as wind energy,solar energy, water
energy,etc which are available,environmental friendly and more importantly
they are unlimited.
To sum up, despite advantages from nuclear energy, using it is still too
dangerous. We should limit our use of it or if we use it,we have to be very
careful. There's lots of other sources of energy which are clean and powerful
that we can use

In the contemporary era, as the detrimental effects of oil on the environment
increase, the dependency on this kind of energy has emerged as a topic of
interest. While a school of thought holds that fossil fuel should be replaced by

In conclusion , despite the advantages from nuclear energy, using it is still too
dangerous so this kind of energy should also be managed carefully by the
government .
SAMPLE:
In this day and age, oil is the most omnipresent and widely used type of energy.
Nevertheless, the overuse of this energy may make oil become depleted and
take a heavy toll on the atmosphere. Therefore, the use of nuclear energy should
be promoted for the sake of the world. From my perspective, nuclear power has
both demerits and merits.
On the one hand, it is conspicuous that humanity can reap a wide range of
benefits from nuclear power. First and foremost, one of the clear advantages of
nuclear energy is that this energy is carbon-free. While traditional fossil fuel
generation sources pump massive amounts of carbon dioxide into the
atmosphere, nuclear energy plants do not produce carbon footprint, or any air
pollution, during operation. To illustrate, according to the Nuclear Power
Institute, the use of nuclear electricity prevents 528 million metric tons of
carbon dioxide from being emitted into the atmosphere annually. Second,
nuclear energy is a reliable renewable energy source based on its constant
production and accessibility. Nuclear power plants produce at their maximum
power output more often (93% of the time) than any other energy source, and
because of this round-the-clock stability, this makes nuclear energy an ideal
source for reliable baseload electricity for the grid.
On the other hand, there is no denying that nuclear energy has a plethora of
limitations. Obviously, the upfront costs of nuclear stations are exorbitantly
extravagant. Nuclear reactors are complex devices that require many levels of
safety built around them, which drives up the cost of new nuclear plants. What
is more, nuclear power may exert a pernicious effect on the world’s safety. It is
undeniable that nuclear waste is radioactive, which may paint a bleak picture to
the environment. In worst scenarios, malfunctions in nuclear stations may make
these companies explode, releasing harmful radioactive properties into the
environment and eventuating in cardiovascular and respiratory diseases to many
species, including humans. As a prime instance, in 2020, there was an explosion
of a nuclear organisation in Beirut, causing at least 218 deaths, 7,000 injuries,
and US$15 billion in property damage, as well as leaving an estimated 300,000
people homeless.
SAMPLE:
In this day and age, oil is indisputably one of the major sources fulfilling
residents’ energy requirements. However, given its finite amount and
ENVIRONMENTAL DETRIMENT, people believe nuclear power should be
used as an ecofriendly and practical replacement. From my perspective, nuclear
energy is advantageous yet detrimental.
On the one hand, nuclear energy does have a wide range of positive effects.
First and foremost, it is proven to be more environmentally friendly in
comparison with other energy sources. In contrast to other types of energy, the
plant itself does not emit greenhouse gases. Studies have shown that the
emissions from the plants are similar to renewable energy sources such as wind
power. Secondly, nuclear power plants provide a stable source of energy.
According to World Nuclear News (WNN), UK's Heyshame II plant ran without
needing refuelling for a record-breaking 940 days in 2016. Moreover, compared
to other sources such as solar or wind energy,the running of the plant is also not
contingent on weather or foreign suppliers, which makes it more stable than
these forms of energy.
On the other hand, nuclear power also brings numerous drawbacks to society.
To begin with, the radioactive substance has been proven to be toxic to both
humans and the environment. This can be demonstrated by the Chernobyl
accident that happened in Ukraine in 1986 in which between 15 000 and 30 000
people lost their lives and more than 2.5 million Ukrainians are still struggling
with health problems resulting from nuclear fallout. Moreover, one of the
potential ingredients for disaster is the shutdown reactor. There have been
several nuclear reactors that have failed and been shut down that are still in
existence. These abandoned reactors, which are taking up valuable land space,
could be potentially contaminating the areas surrounding them yet are often too
unstable to be removed.
In conclusion, despite nuclear power’s distinct advantages, there remain
worrying concerns about its potential hazards. Therefore, it is indispensable to
take these aspects into careful consideration before bringing this source of
energy into use.

Given is the line graph illustrating the amount of money that was invested in
four financial assets, including company shares, fine art, gold and property
between 1988 and 2014.
Overall, all four categories of investment fund rose over the period. Moreover,
gold had the highest growth among the four.
As can be seen, in 1988, the expenditure on gold was 100 millions dollars,
double that of company shares. The period between 1988 and 2006 witnessed
the significant increase in company share investment to about 220 millions
dollars in 2006. Meanwhile the data of gold followed an erratic pattern to reach
just under 150 millions dollars in 2006. In the entire years of the period, there
was a remarkable jump in gold investment to peak at around 375 millions
dollars in 2014, becoming the highest among the four. In terms of company
share investment, its figure substantially increased to end up at exactly 250
millions dollars in the last year of the period.
Furthermore, when it comes to fine art and property, the amount of money spent
on them was approximately 80 million dollars and 50 millions dollars
correspondingly. In the next 18 years, the value of fine art investment followed
an erratic pattern and reached 100 million dollars in 2006 before soaring up and
peaking at nearly 350 million dollars in 2014. Besides, the property’s figure
consistently went up to reach about 140 millions dollars in the last year of the
period, occupying the lowest position.
TASK 2: Some people think that developing countries need
financial help from international organizations to continue
their development. Some people argue that practical aid or
advice is more useful. Discuss both views and give your own
opinion
People have different views about the kind of support that wealthy nations
should provide for poorer ones. From my perspective, support in the form of
money shows less practicality than other types of useful aid and consultancy.
On the one hand, there are some justifications why some people argue that it is
best to provide financial assistance for developing countries. Firstly, external
monetary flow enables executive bodies of those countries to carry out a variety
of functions, for example infrastructural development, social healthcare, water
and power supplies. This would help avoid stagnation and frost economic
progress. In addition, when state income from taxes is inadequate , foreign cash
injections are vital to maintain effective administration systems by paying
standard salaries for government staff members who play supervisory roles in
all sections of a nation.
On the other hand, I would side with those who believe other forms of
assistance should be given. Sustainable growth does not merely depend on
money, but on how a country is governed and directed, particularly diplomacy
and the resolution of concerning internal issues such as poverty, crime, or
unemployment. In this spectrum, less developed countries certainly do not have
enough experience, which emphasises the need for direction and consultancy
from experienced organisations. Furthermore, even if financially supported,
third world countries still need experts in the fields of science, law and medicine
in order to encourage their development. However, scientists, lawyers and
doctors can only be trained, and professional and systematic education and
training programs are therefore more practical and suitable in the context of
developing nations.
In conclusion, owing to the aforementioned arguments, it seems to me that
instead of monetarily assisting poor countries, global help should come in other
forms like advice and training courses.
Boost economic progress: thúc đẩy sự phát triển kinh tế
SAMPLE:
In this era of globalisation, international support is a prerequisite for developing
countries’ growth. Many people hold the viewpoint that these nations necessitate
monetary help whereas others are under the assumption that practical aid and guidance
are preferential. Personally, I believe that which support is better is dependent on each
country’s downsides.
On the one hand, it is conspicuous that financial assistance is of indispensable necessity
to many underprivileged countries. First and foremost, being provided with external
money flows may help poverty-stricken nations to improve infrastructural development
such as healthcare,welfare, power supplies, education and cutting-edge technologies.
The significance of these infrastructure are undeniable as it may set a solid foundation
for the amelioration in residents’ general well-being, standard living conditions and
intellectual levels. Therefore, citizens could devote greater labour and intelligence to
their country’s development. Second, there is no denying that foreign cash injections
play a pivotal role in building up effective administrative systems by paying salaries for
governmental personnel without delay which act as a motivation and satisfaction for
staff. Hence, workers may be fully in charge of supervisory positions, eventuating in the
deceleration of street violence, crimes and social unrest.
On the other hand, many people bear the notion that other forms of assistance are of
greater importance in the long run. Firstly, sustainable growth does not merely depends
on money, but on how a country is governed and directed, particularly diplomacy and
the resolution of concerning internal issues like poverty, crime, or unemployment. In
this spectrum, less developed countries may have inadequate knowledge and experience,
which puts an emphasis on the need for direction and consultancy from experienced
nations. Secondly, assisting undeveloped countries with labour forces and training
which they lack is essential. It is apparent that many nations are slowly developing
because governmental and office personnel do not have enough training to broaden
their horizon and hone their skills. Therefore, making an international all-out effort to
improve workers’ skills may be effective in lacerating a country’s poverty line.
From all above, I have an equanimity-oriented view that there is no comparison
between these two approaches and it is subjective to the needs of different countries. For
those who have a preference for setting up state-of-the-art technology developments and
providing national workforce with motivation, monetary support is of paramount
significance. Meanwhile, countries who are in the pursuit of sustainable improvement
rely heavily on advice and practical aids.
In conclusion, I opine that comparing whether international financial support or advice
is more important may lead to no end as it depends on each country’s need. It is highly
recommended that developed countries take everything into consideration before
choosing support.

Export Earnings (2015 -2016)
Given is the bar chart and the table illustrating the export earnings of five
categories of products in 2015 and 2016 .
Overall, petroleum products were the highest earning exports in both years, the
opposite is true for textiles. However, textiles had the highest growth , as
opposed to that of gems and jewellery .
As can be seen, export earnings from petroleum products rose from $60 billion
in 2015 to about $61,8 billion in 2016, which was an increase of 3%. Besides,
income from engineered goods was around $57 in 2015 and went up by 8.5%
to approximately $61.5 billion in 2016.
Furthermore, from 2015 to 2016, there was a 15.24% increase in export revenue
from textiles, with earnings rising from roughly $25 billion to over $30 billion.
By contrast, there was almost no change in the amount of money earned from
agriculture products, which remained just over $30 billion. In addition, the only
decline in incomes occurred in the gems and jewellery product category, where
export earnings decreased by 5.18% from about $43 billion to roughly $40
billion.
BÀI:
Given are a bar chart illustrating the profit of one nation’s exports in multifarious
sectors from 2015 to 2016 and a table demonstrating the percentage difference in
each category of exports in 2016 in comparison to 2015.
Overall, it is obvious that petroleum products and engineered goods were clear
leaders in making profits amongst 5 exported commodities. What is more, the
textiles witnessed the most remarkable increase throughout the given period.
As can be seen, in 2015, the value of petroleum occupied the highest position, at 60
billion dollars, followed by that of engineered goods and gems and jewellery which
consisted of approximately 57 and 42 billion dollars respectively. In the same time,
the figure for textiles ranked lowest with merely 27 billion dollars profit, 3 billion
dollars lower than that of agricultural products. In the year 2016, petroleum products
and engineered goods soared up to an equivalent value of 62 billion dollars while the
figure for textiles accelerated dramatically to 32 billion dollars. The profits of gems
and jewellery and agricultural products remained relatively unchanged.
What is more, in regard to the percentage rise in values during the period from 2015
to 2016, textiles topped the charts with more than 15%, doubling that of engineered
items. Additionally, there were also increases of 3% and 0,81% in petroleum
products and agricultural products correspondingly. In contrast, the only figure which
decelerated was the gems and jewellery, accounting for 5%
TASK 2: Some people believe that the media should be allowed to publish
information about the private lives of famous people. Others say that
everybody has a right to privacy and this practice must be controlled or even
stopped. Discuss both views.
In today’s changing world of media and communication, everybody gets all
kinds of information through newspapers and other sources of the media. People
take a keen interest in the personal and professional life of celebrities,
politicians and other public figures. However, conflicting views arise about the
excessive media coverage of individuals. Some find it acceptable while others
are against it. In this essay, we will discuss both the views.
On one hand, publishing news about artists and politicians is good for their fans
and followers. As the youths today consider cricketers, politicians and actors as
their role models, getting a glimpse of their personal life is not harmful in any
way. The difference between an artists’ reel and real behaviour can be depicted
through media and news. In fact, we get to know about a political leader’s social
activities through the media which helps us decide whether that politician is
capable of ruling or not.
VIẾT THÊM Ý, QUÁ NGẮN
On the other hand, the public should not forget that celebrities and politicians
are also human beings who deserve some privacy. Invading people's privacy can
also lead to insecurity in their life. As many public figures have opponents and
enemies, publishing private information in newspapers can have detrimental
effects on their career. The overall productivity of the celebrities will increase
when there is no such conflict.
In conclusion, privacy brings security, therefore, the media should not invade
people’s privacy for entertainment or profitable purposes. In my perspective,
privacy is one of the fundamental rights, and the government should control if
the media publish any inappropriate information.
Chữa:
In today’s changing world of media and communication, everybody gets all
kinds of information through newspapers and other sources of the media.
However, conflicting views arise about the excessive media coverage of
individuals. While the followers of prominent people can learn about their
favourite stars, I believe that it is wrong to dig into every aspect of celebrities.
On the one hand, publishing news about the actual lives of famous individuals
allows people to learn and understand to whom they follow. This can present a
real image of a prominent person or whether they are just pretending to be a
decent person in front of the camera. For example, a recent study by Cambridge
University found that nearly 20% of celebrities in the UK were living a totally
different lifestyle than what they were pretending in public. However, I do not
agree with this viewpoint because of the reason elucidated below.
On the other hand, the articles published on prominent peoples’ private lives is
an invasion into their privacy. This is a clear violation of the rights of their
personal lives and some media houses can present distorted facts to aggregate
things to raise a controversy. To illustrate, one of the media houses in India
shared the family matters of a famous singer and this article ruined the
professional career of that singer. Therefore, this school of thought is preferable
because this is an utterly wrong practice to invade people's lives and thus, there
should be control over publications.
In conclusion, privacy brings security, therefore, the media should not invade
people’s privacy for entertainment or profitable purposes. In my perspective,
privacy is one of the fundamental rights, and the government should control if
the media publish any inappropriate information.
Sample:
Nowadays, many people hold the viewpoint that it is advisable that the media
be at liberty to establish celebrities’ private data. Meanwhile, others are under
the assumption that everyone has a privilege to tighten their privacy and this
practice must be gotten rid of. In my opinion, I agree with the latter school of
notion.
On the one hand, those who bear the notion that the media can freely publish
famous people’s secret information may have a firm conviction that this
practice will be tremendously beneficial. First and foremost, the public,
especially these celebrities’ fans, can have in-depth insights into their idols’
private lives. Therefore, they can quench their thirst for knowledge about their
idol and be at ease. Furthermore, the media and popular figures have a
symbiotic relationship. One depends on the other for their existence. Prevalent
people need the media to make their name become ubiquitous and raise their
prestige. At this stage, celebrities can not prevent the media from writing
about their secret information.
On the other hand, others, including myself, believe that every person has
their own right to protect their privacy and this practice should be eradicated.
Invading on popular figures’ privacy may lead to insecurity in their life.
Nobody is perfect and everyone has flaws. Nonetheless, when a celebrity
exhibits them, they will be criticised by the media, which will take a heavy toll
on their career. Also, it is conspicuous that famous people still have their own
lives which they want to shield from the public’s attention. If the newspaper
and social media record every movement of their daily activities, they can not
live to the fullest and therefore become irritated and annoyed.
In conclusion, although the media’s publicising celebrities’ private lives may
be somehow righteous, I would opine that this practice should be restricted
and banned as it may exert a pernicious effect on their lives.

Given is the table illustrating the survey result from club members and the
general public regarding an unspecified town’s new theatre in 2012.
Overall, the vast majority of opinions were ranked excellent in all three
categories. Moreover, there was only a small percentage of survey participants
who ranked any category as poor.
As can be seen, in terms of club members, 72% found the theatre facilities to be
excellent, while 26% were satisfied and 2% said they were poor. Meanwhile,
54% of members said the theatre information was excellent, while around
one-third were only satisfied. The quality of the theatre was ranked as excellent
by 88% of the members, while 10% were satisfied, and 2% ranked them to be
poor.
Furthermore, on the other hand, 64% of the general public ranked the facilities
as excellent, with only 24% merely satisfied. Furthermore, two-thirds of the
public thought the information was excellent, while 20% were only satisfied.
Additionally, while 53% of the public thought the quality was excellent, 7%
ranked it as poor.

Given is the diagram illustrating the process of making leather products.
Overall, there are 11 stages in this procedure, beginning with drying the skin
and finishing with producing leather items such as bags or shoes.
As can be seen, at the first step of the process, animal skin is hanged and dried
and after that is taken to a factory by a lorry. Subsequently, it is washed in a
liquid that is a mixture of water and lime. Afterwards, the skin is soaked in lime
solely.
In the fifth stage of the process, the skin is flattered by a special machine then it
is soaked again but this time in Tannin, which is a liquid composed of water and
vegetable matter. Once this step is completed, the skin is polished and a lorry is
used to take the product to a different factory, where various leather goods such
as balls, bags , shoes will be produced from this material.
Given is the pie chart illustrating EU exports of goods to India and China in two
years 2005 and 2015.
Overall, Germany is the country which exported goods the most in India and
China.
As can be seen, in terms of India, the exports of the UK accounted for 29% ,
nearly doubling that of Germany. However, from 2005 to 2015, there was a
remarkable jump in Germany's figure to take up 25%, about twice times higher
than that of the UK. Besides, the value of exports from Belgium to India
declined from 25% in 2005 to 20% in 2015. In addition, Finland's rate remained
stable and there was a slow upward trend in the entire countries’ proportion.
Furthermore, when it comes to the China market, the majority of the exports to
China came from which made up 38% in 2005 and 48% in 2015. Meanwhile,
Austria and Belgium maintained their exports at 2% and 5% respectively.
Moreover, there was a marginal increase of only 1% in Netherland and Spain’
statistics from 4%,2% to 5%,3% correspondingly. As regards the rest countries’
figures, they all showed a downward tendency.
Given are the pie charts illustrating the exportation of different EU nations to India and China
in two individual years namely 2005 and 2015.
Overall, it is conspicuous that despite initially occupying the highest position in India, the
proportion of exports from the United Kingdom was then overtaken by that of Germany. Also
noteworthy is the fact that Germany’s exports retained its dominant position in the China
market throughout the given period.
As transparent from the diagrams, as far as India is concerned, in 2005, the exportation of the
United Kingdom took the lead at 29%, followed by that of Belgium and Germany which
accounted for 25% and 15% respectively. Meanwhile, the figures for Sweden, Spain and
Finland were equivalent at 2%, doubling that of Austria. In 10 years’ time, Germany’s
exports witnessed the most remarkable increase of 10% while the figures for Netherlands,
France and Italy saw a smaller rise of 1-2%.
What is more, in terms of the Chinese market, the exportation of Germany constituted 38%
approximately quadrupling that of the United Kingdom, Italy and Sweden. Contrariwise, the
percentage of Spain and Austria exports ranked lowest at 2% equivalently. The year 2015
witnessed the significant rise in the figure for Germany, which made up about a half of the
total exportation. At the same time, the proportion of other countries experienced a twofold
increase
TASK 2:
Some people say that modern technology has made shopping
today easier, while others disagree. Discuss both views and
give your opinion
It is sometimes argued that technical advancements such as e-commerce have
enhanced shopping experiences. In my opinion, I believe that overall,
technology has made retail an easier experience in most cases despite some
drawbacks.
On the one hand, some individuals feel that technology has made shopping
more difficult due to some compelling reasons. Firstly, although technology has
brought about the advent of shopping, it has also brought about endless options
which can lead to indecision and too much time wasted to find the right item to
find. In addition, shopping might be more difficult because when buying certain
items online, it may be difficult to gauge the correct size of items. For example,
online sales do not allow for fitting before purchase when buying clothing or
shoes.
On the other hand, technology has made shopping easier due to its convenience.
Today’s technology has invented a number of advancements such as online
shopping , which has allowed individuals who are limited in mobility to buy
what they need without going out. For instance, the Covid 19 pandemic has
made shopping difficult with many in-person stores closed. With technology,
people now can order products through the internet without leaving their home.
In addition, shopping is made easier by including delivery. In a traditional store,
people need to have some way to transport their new items back home, which
may be difficult for those without personal vehicles. Moreover, if an individual
cannot find what they want in the store , they can easily go on another website
or app to find the product instead of having to travel to another store.
In conclusion, although there are a few drawbacks to shopping online such as
endless options and difficulty with sizing, technology has made technology
easier by making it vastly more convenient for people .

SAMPLE:
In this era of ever-advancing technology, the omnipresence of online shopping is being
promoted, which causes heaps of debates whether this will facilitate shoppers to shop easier
or make it harder. From my perspective, although both schools of notion are right to a certain
extent, online purchasing is tremendously beneficial for clients.
On the one hand, it is believed that online shopping has its limitations and drawbacks, which
may take a heavy toll on the shoppers themselves. First and foremost, it is undeniable that
customers who opt for buying products online stand a high chance of being scammed. Due to
the ever-increasing reliance on shopping via the Internet, many people are finding ways to
rob money out of consumers. As a prime instance, many shop owners have a tendency to
deliver goods which are of lower quality than in online advertisements or invade customers’
private information such as credit cards. Second, people may have difficulties in gauzing the
correct size, color and quality of items via purchasing online. Unlike buying in-person,
customers are unable to try out the clothes or examine their quality when purchasing online.
Therefore, if the products do not live up to people’s expectations, they can not take their
money back as many of these items are non-refu
ndable.
On the other hand, there is no denying that the advances of technology play a pivotal role in
assisting the citizens’ availability of purchasing commodities. It is incontrovertible that
shoppers can avail themselves of the convenience of online purchasing. In today's fast-paced
world, people have a tendency to lead a hectic lifestyle with heaps of workloads and
assignments, leaving them with inadequate amounts of time to care for their daily errands let
alone traveling to shops. Therefore, online shopping acts as an alternative for face-to-face
trading, which is more time-saving and can be available within a few mouse clicks.
Especially given the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, many state authorities impose
lockdowns and social-distancing regulations in their country, making it more difficult to reach
supermalls and markets. Thus, they have to rely on online shopping with a view to getting
enough necessities and guaranteeing their safety.
In conclusion, although there are a plethora of disadvantages of online shopping, I believe
that it is extremely helpful for customers in this day and age.

Given is the diagram illustrating the disparities of neighbourhood before and
after the construction of a mall.
Overall, the new mall took space where formerly there had been other things.
Moreover, this area underwent a significant transformation due to the new mall
being built, especially in terms of infrastructure.
As can be seen, previously, this area was environmentally friendly and there
were only two stores on Main street, including a book store and a shoe store.
Besides the stores, there was an area of woods and also a park with a lake.
When it comes to the right side of Mainstreet there were only houses which
were accommodations for residents.
Furthermore, after a mall was constructed to cater for the demand of shopping
of residents, two stores and woods’ area were removed and replaced by a mall.
As regards the left corner of the map, the park and the lake were also
demolished in order to build a parking lot. In addition, two houses located
between Oak street and Main street were pulled down and another parking lot
was erected to deal with the increase of vehicles. Surprisingly, the houses on the
right side of Oak road remained plateau.

The graphs show figures relating to hours worked and stress levels amongst
professionals in eight groups.
Given is the bar chart illustrating medium working hours of eight categories of
jobs and the pie chart depicting the percentages of those dealing with
stress-related issues.
Overall, businessmen spend the longest time on work among the eight groups,
as opposed to that of lecturers. However, lecturers struggle the most with
anxiety issues, the opposite is true for programmers.
As can be seen, in terms of bar chart, businessmen work 70 hours per week,
which is higher than other professionals. Meanwhile, movie producers have 60
working hours per week, doubling that of chefs. As regards doctors, they work
about 50 in a week, twice as much as lecturers. In addition, working hours of
writers, lawyers and programmers are around 45, 32 and 40 respectively.
Furthermore, when it comes to the pie chart , lecturers have the highest
incidence of stress related illnesses at 25%. Besides, movie producers and
doctors also have high rates of anxiety issues which account for 18% and 15%
correspondingly. As for the figures of writers, lawyers, chefs and businessmen,
they can be grouped into proportions between 8% and 11%. Surprisingly, the
lowest rate of stress illness is attributed to programmers at 5%, one-fifth of the
figure of lecturers
Process of recycling aluminium
Given is the diagram illustrating the recycling of aluminium products.
Overall, there are 7 main stages in the process of recycling aluminium,
beginning with collecting used cans and ending with reusing.
As can be seen, the first step is collecting used cans from wastebaskets. After
that , the cans need to be taken to special collection centres. In the following
stage, collected cans are moved to a factory where they are sorted and then
cleaned, followed by being shredded and compressed into metal. Afterwards,
the metal is then heated to high enough temperature to allow the aluminium to
melt.
Furthermore, on the fifth step, the metal is rolled out flat to a thickness of
between 2.5mm and 6 mm. Following this, the aluminium is then ready to be
recycled into new packaging such as drink containers. Once this step is
completed, the new cans are able to be reused. Moreover, in the UK, 74% of
aluminium cans are recycled and reused.
TASK 2:
Organized tour to remote areas and community is increasingly
popular. Is it a positive or negative development for the local
people and the environment?
In recent years, there has been a growing tendency for tourists to travel to rural
locations and communities on organised tours. This has some positive impacts
on the local people, but I think the detrimental effects on the environment are
more significant and that the issue is more negative development.
On the one hand, the growth of the tourism industry has brought some
enormous benefits to local residents. Firstly, with the influx of tourists comes
the greater demand for food, accommodation and services, all of which create
job opportunities and decelerate unemployment in the area. This also helps to
boost the local economy in remote areas and eventually enhance living
standards of the local people, especially in terms of infrastructure with more
roads and bridges being built.
ĐOẠN 1 BA CÂU LÀ QUÁ NGẮN, ÍT CŨNG PHẢI 7 CÂU
On the other hand, despite afore-mentioned benefits there are some detrimental
impacts as well, especially in terms of its adverse effects on the pristine
environment and creatures living there. Forests may be cut down to make way
for resorts and hotels; marine life might be threatened due to water pollution,
and birds have to find other places to inhabit. In some places, waste from the
hotel industry is becoming an environmental problem that concerns many
people, not just environmentalists. Besides, intrusion on local customs and
traditions is a big concern and it can lead to cultural extinction. This is due to
the fact that the propensity to aping others can be detrimental to religions of
tribes and their beliefs. People can also imitate the way travellers use garments
and consumer goods which will make the local customs perish.
In conclusion, though the economy and societies in remote areas can benefit
tremendously from organised tourism, I think that the negative environmental
consequences that this situation brings are more significant. Therefore, to
mitigate the adverse outcome of tourism, new legislation should be passed by
the government.
SAMPLE:
In this era of globalization, many tourists have a preference for visiting remote
societies and other nations, which promotes the popularity of planned tours to these
areas. In my opinion, although this trend may be tremendously beneficial for
economic prosperity and culture conservation,the negative impacts on the
environment should not be overlooked/underestimated
On the one hand, it is conspicuous that the home countries will reap a wide range of
benefits from the tourism expansion of remote areas. First and foremost, the
developing tourism in remote areas plays a pivotal role in improving the employment
ratio. Undeniably, the residents within the areas can avail themselves of a plethora of
occupations in places such as hotels, restaurants and souvenir shops. Second, the
governments can make use of these places of interest to generate a big source of
profits. With the burgeoning influx of international visitors, the authorities are likely to
invest in entertainment, accommodations and foods with a view to attracting as
many tourists as possible, which will then foster their economic prosperity. Third, in
order to catch the attention of tourists who want to quench their thirst for cultural
diversity, the authorities have to spend a large amount of their budgets on preserving
the quintessential cultural beauty and breathtaking landscapes.
On the other hand, there is no denying that the ubiquity of tourism in remote
communities will exert a pernicious effect on the atmosphere and biodiversity. It is
obvious that the frequency of heavy transports such as planes and trains associated
with the activities of tourists will certainly emit a substantial amount of CO2
emissions and dump rubbish into the atmosphere. As a consequence, the
deterioration of the air quality will occur, eventuating in other pernicious
repercussions such as global warming or cardiovascular and respiratory diseases.
What is more, due to the exploitation of tourism expansion, the biodiversity will be
detrimentally affected. Conspicuously, the tourism companies will encroach on the
habitats of animals to construct recreational buildings, which put the animals on the
verge of extinction and do great harm to the food chain.
In conclusion, I hold a firm conviction that the popularity of remote areas amongst
international tourists may have both positive and negative effects. Therefore, it is
highly recommended that governments and related parties take measures to
improve the strengths and curb the issues.

Given is the bar chart illustrating the proportions of coffee and tea buying and
consuming habits in 5 different cities in Australia.
Overall, it is conspicuous that going to a cafe to have coffee was the most
common, except for Adelaide.Moreover, the rate of people buying instant coffee
was always higher than that of those purchasing fresh coffee in all cities.
As can be seen,In terms of Sydney and Melbourne, while the percentage of
Sydney’s people drinking tea or coffee at a cafe was about 61%, the figure for
Melbourne was slightly higher, at around 63%. Meanwhile, over 45% of
citizens in Sydney and Melbourne had a habit of buying instant coffee, whereas
the proportions of those purchasing fresh coffee in these two cities were around
44% and 43% respectively.
Furthermore, when it comes to the remaining cities, having coffee or tea at a
cafe accounted for the largest percentage of people in Hobart, followed by
Brisbane and Adelaide, at approximately 51% and 49% respectively. At the
same time, around 53% of people in Brisbane and Hobart chose to buy instant
coffee, compared to nearly 50% of those in Adelaide. Finally, a close similarity
can be seen in the percentage of people buying fresh coffee in Brisbane and
Adelaide, at around 34%, while Hobart’s figure was higher, at roughly 38%.
Task 2:
Some people are born to be leaders, while others believe leadership can be
learnt. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
These days, opinions are divided on whether leadership is an innate trait or a
skill that can be acquired through training. In this essay, I am going to examine
this question from both points of view and then give my own perspective on
why I am more inclined to being a leader is a skill that can be learned through
intensive training.
On the one hand , there are some compelling reasons why some people
subscribe to the view that leadership is innate. Individuals can be born with
certain qualities that are predictive of a good leader such as bravery, strategic
intelligence and self-confidence. These traits can be passed down along a long
lineage of successful leaders from one generation to the next. This is evident in
how Henry Ford II presided over the Ford Motor Company after his father did.
Like his father, he was both tenacious and intelligent in guiding the company to
long-term success by pursuing aggressive and forward-thinking strategies in
innovating Ford’s automotive technology. Thus it is understandable why some
would contend leadership can be acquired inherently.
On the other hand, a more persuasive case can be made for leadership as a
learned quality. Individuals can become leaders in a disciplined environment
through the process of training, practice and hands-on experience over time. For
instance, numerous reputed educational institutions throughout the world
administer leadership programs for those wanting to gain the required skill set
to become effective leaders. Within those programs there are courses intended
to cover the necessary aspects of leadership such as management, problem
solving, implementation of strategy and decision making. In addition, many
successful and eminent world leaders were not natural born leaders, but they
have been practising to remain curious to innovative approaches, follow their
passion and understand the importance of patience and empathy with their
subordinates.
In conclusion, while it is fair to assume that some are born with the qualities of
a good leader, I would assert that leadership skills can be gained through
education and experience in a structured environment.

Given is the bar chart illustrating opinions of students on 7 different categories
of subjects in an Australian university.
Overall, it is conspicuous that Math is the most difficult, the opposite is true for
Chemistry.
As can be seen, in terms of natural science subjects, 70% of students rate Math
as difficult, a minority of 10% mark it moderately difficult. Besides, a half of
students attest physics as tough and the proportions for those who judged it as
moderately difficult and easy account for 25% for each. Interestingly, the
percentage of students who mark chemistry as easy is recorded at 70% and only
one-fifth of students rate it as hard.
Furthermore, when it comes to social subjects, African languages is rated as the
easiest subject with 60% of students rate it as difficult, three times more than
those who mark it as tough.Meanwhile, art is the most strenuous subject with
50% of students attest it as hard and there is only 30% of students mark it as
easy . As regards languages, it is reported that 40% of students judge it as hard
and the proportions for those who rate it easy and moderately difficult are 30%
for each. Besides, as for the figures of oriental languages, a half of students
consider it as medium, followed by difficult and easy, at 30% and 20%
respectively.
TASK 2: The gap between the rich and the poor is becoming
wider; the rich is becoming richer, and the poor are even
getting poorer. What problems can the situation cause? What
can be done to reduce this gap?
These days, unequal distribution of wealth is one of the common problems
faced by developing nations. There is no doubt that the gap present clearly
today between the poor and the rich is getting wider by time and is affecting our
way of life. Such income inequality could lead to several problems and some
proposals to improve this situation will be analysed in this essay.
Wealth concentration within a handful of individuals and institutions might
result in two compelling issues. Firstly, the rich-poor gap could be the breeding
ground for social unrest and political instability. The poor might perceive that
the rich are the principal force of hindrance to their occupational and service
opportunities. This might be the precursor to discontentment, which potentially
is the onset of social anarchy. Another issue is that as poverty restricts the
capacity of the underprivileged to access service and other life sustaining
matters such as education, employment and medicine, they might resort to
violence and opt for the life of criminals.
However, there are several initiatives to reduce economic inequality, including
progressive taxation and minimum salary legislation. Higher taxes should be
levied on the rich, which could reduce the amount of income inequality in
society. On the other hand, governments could use this money to supply free
goods and services for those who struggle to make a living. Also of great
importance is the increase in the minimum earnings of the poorest workers.
Although it cannot be denied that the current system places much importance on
individual competence to determine the amount of money one might earn,
unskilled workforce who usually are from the lower class should be, still,
provided enough to live sufficiently.
In conclusion, chaos and the acceleration of crime rates are the two severe
repercussions of the unequal distribution of wealth; and governments could
impose heavy taxes on the rich and heighten the minimum amount of salary for
the disadvantaged.

Given are two maps illustrating the disparities of the seaside resort of
Templeton between 1990 and 2005.
Overall, it is conspicuous that the seashore vacation spot underwent a
significant transformation, especially in terms of infrastructure.
As can be seen, in 1990, the seaside town of Templeton was natural and
undeveloped with many trees, housing estates, and public facilities. Besides, the
Railway Station, which was located in the East, was close to the woodland. To
the North of woodland were some public facilities such as schools and hospitals.
Furthermore, in 2005, the woodland near the school was converted into the
airport. As regards the border of the river, a new establishment constructed
along the river was the ferry. Moreover, a big number of trees had to be
removed to make way for the factory on the left side of the river. On the other
side of the river, houses were turned into a supermarket. In addition, housing
states were replaced by a flotilla of skyscrapers.
SAMPLE:
Given are the diagrams illustrating the differences of a seaside resort of Templeton throughout the
period from 1990 to 2005.
Overall, it is conspicuous that this place underwent multifarious alterations from a residential area to a
commercial one. Also noteworthy is that despite the changes, the railway station, school and hospital
remained unchanged over the given timescale.
As transparent from the diagram, there is a main road, which divides the resort to two different sides:
North and South. Obviously, surrounding the lake, which is located on the Northwest side of the map,
there used to be many trees, which were really environmentally-friendly. However, in the 15 years’
time, these trees were cut down with a view to paving the way for a plethora of skyscrapers. Due to
the ever-increasing number of residents, there were many houses which were constructed in 2005
alongside the roads and train tracks.
As can be seen, in 2005, with the rising demands for housing and convenience, many households and
trees were replaced by apartments and a supermarket. Moreover, heaps of trees in the southeast of the
maps was demolished in order to facilitate the construction of a factory. A railway track, a ferry and a
new bridge were also added to the map for the sake of travelling and transporting goods.
These days, maternity leave has gradually been considered as a righteous
measure for the welfare of female employees. Some people believe this action is
beneficial for women and their babies, while other people deem that maternity
leave may also cause some issues. This essay will discuss why the advantages
of offering maternity leave outweigh the disadvantages.
On the one hand, the provision of maternity leave can cause some issues for the
employer in terms of daily operations and human resource management. To be
specific, maternity leave means that female employees are taking day-offs with
pay for a few months, and during this period of time, the company needs to
either get their colleagues to fill in for them or hire new employees to ensure the
daily operations are not impaired. For example, if a female employee can have 3
months for her maternity break, and there are 5 people having their breaks for
maternity reasons, the company may suffer a crisis of human resource, and the
daily operations of this company can be severely impaired.
On the other hand, maternity leave reflects how modern society emphasises on
the well-being of women. Thanks to the feminist movements in recent decades,
the whole society has obtained a better understanding of the importance for
women to have maternity breaks. To explain, research has revealed that having a
break from work can be conducive for the physical health of new mothers.
Moreover, the mother’s presence is essential for the emotional and physical
development of the baby. Since children are the future of any nation, ensuring
their normal growth and development is of paramount importance for any
country. Thus, it can be seen that maternity break is crucial for the well-being of
both mothers and babies.
In conclusion, despite the disadvantages that may affect the company’s
operations and management, maternity leave is proven to be beneficial for both
mothers and their infants, and hence, the merits of offering maternity leave
outweigh the demerits.
SAMPLE:
In this day and age, many organizations enable women to take maternity leave from their
occupations during the first month after their baby’s birth. From my perspective, although this
trend is tremendously beneficial, its detrimental impacts should not be overlooked.
On the one hand, it is conspicuous that not only will maternity leave ensure the development
of children but it will also facilitate the health improvement of mothers . As far as kids are
concerned, the mother’s presence plays a pivotal role in fostering the caring of their babies.
It is incontrovertible that in the absence of their mothers, newborns stand a high chance of
suffering from many pernicious diseases due to the deprivation of breastfeeding and
mother’s care. Therefore, should women be permitted to have some days off after their
children’s birth, they will have more time to take care of their infants, which is an
indispensable necessity for the sake of the newborns. In terms of mothers, after receiving
maternity leave, they can avail themselves of a large amount of days off to care for their own
well-being. Undeniably, during and after pregnancy, mothers are prone to be sleep-deprived
owing to the unexpected sleeping and feeding patterns of their newborns, which is one of the
main culprits behind the ever-increasing postpartum depression in women. Thus, maternity
leave is a prerequisite for women after their pregnancy for the sake of their full recovery.
On the other hand, there is no denying that women’s maternity leave may also have a
variety of potential drawbacks. First and foremost, that women are allowed to take maternity
leave will pose critical hazards to the incomes of their families. It is obvious that many
corporations often reduce the salaries of women who are taking maternity leave, thereby
pushing all the financial responsibilities on their husbands. With the additional fees of raising
a child such as insurance, food, clothes and entertainment, hardly can a normal livelihood
made by men be sufficient, which will drive them to work overtime and run other errands. As
a result, they may be made to work excessively hard, hence leading to many physical and
mental issues. Second, one-month maternity leave may eventuate in a plummet in
productivity of women’s working performance once their leaving duration is over. Clearly,
they will have a plethora of difficulties in getting used to the working hours and routines,
especially in this era when companies are rapidly renovating their schedules and
implementing more changes. Consequently, these women may have their salaries reduced
or eventually be fired on the basis of their lackluster working performance.
In conclusion, I believe that the merits of maternity leave are overshadowed by its demerits.
Therefore, it is highly recommended that governments provide women with sustainable
incomes during their leave and educational institutions after their leave.
SAMPLE:
In many countries, women working in most sectors are entitled to take maternity leave from
their work. From my perspective, this situation offers considerable benefits regardless of
several entailed drawbacks.
On the one hand, maternity leave offers innumerable merits. To begin with, it provides
women with enough time and revenue to properly nurture their offspring from birth, offering
the eventual benefits for their comprehensive development. Maternal care plays a pivotal role
in the early life of children, which is proven to be crucial for their physical and psychological
health. That mothers can spend time on taking care of their child in this period can facilitate
the young generation’s interaction, thereby, enhancing their linguistic skills in the future.
Moreover, maternity leave enables female workers to fully recover their physical and mental
condition. As women are liable to undergo stress after giving birth, it is indispensable for
companies to provide proper furlough in order to maintain employee’s job performance after
their maternity leave.
On the other hand, this policy can create additional workload for other colleagues thereby
probably leading to poor productivity at work. This results from the fact that other employees
are liable to encounter obstacles due to the unfamiliar nature of work in the beginning and are
likely to make mistakes. Moreover, this can result in problematic situations the employers
might have to recruit new staffs to stand in for the women going on maternity leave.
Furthermore, staying away from work for a period could lead to idleness and laxity on the
job. Therefore, a nursing mother might need to undergo several trainings with a view to being
able to fulfil the company's current standard.
In conclusion, pregnancy leave fosters a healthy society and ensures employees’ ability to
fulfill the demands at the workplace. Thus, it is indisputable that its merits clearly dwarf the
involved drawbacks. However, companies should offer appropriate methods in order to
surmount potential issues relating to maternity leave.
Given is the line graph illustrating the us consumption by 6 categories of fuel
between 1980 and 2015 and its forecast from 2015 to 2030
Overall, fossil fuel was the dominant type and it was predicted to continue this
trend into the future. Moreover while most of the quantity of all kinds of fuel
consumption increases, the opposite is true for hydropower.
As can be seen, in 1980,petrol and oil was the biggest share with 35
quadrillions, followed by coal and natural gas at nearly 16 and 20, respectively.
From 1980 to 2015, the consumption of petrol and oil rose to about 40
quadrillions and this tendency was estimated to keep going up and end up at
approximately 48 quadrillions in 2030. Besides, the period between 1980 and
2015 witnessed a jump in coal’s figure to 25 quadrillions in 2015,then was
predicted to keep moving upward to roughly 30 quadrillions. In addition,from
1980 to 2015, the data of natural gas followed an erratic pattern with an overall
increase to around 25 quadrillions in 2015. However, in the remaining years of
the period , natural gas’ consumption was forecasted to slightly decline to about
24 quadrillions in the last year of the period.
Furthermore, when it comes to nuclear and renewable energies, the consumption
of these types of fuel were recorded at approximately 4 quadrillions in 1980. As
regards nuclear fuel, the figure for it rose to about 8 quadrillions in 2015.

Given is the diagram illustrating the process of making maple syrup.
Overall, there are several steps, beginning with sap in the tree tp syrup that we
can eat at home all manufacturing other products.
As can be seen, in the first stage of the process, the sap flows due to freezing
temperatures at night. Afterwards, a tap is put into a tree and a tube is connected
to it to make a way for delivering sap to the storage tank. Following this, the sap
is moved to the evaporator where it is boiled until it becomes syrup.
Once this step is done, the syrup is packaged in bottles. In the final stage, syrup
is either delivered to stores, where people buy and enjoy it at home or utilised
for making candies.
SAMPLE:
Given is the diagram illustrating the process by which maple syrup is produced.
Overall, it is conspicuous that there are 7 major stages of the maple syrup manufacture
commencing with collecting sap from trees and ending with being made into consumable
foods.
As transparent from the process, the most complicated stage is the initial one where
producers have to wait for the right time to collect sap from trees. At night when the weather
has a tendency to be freezingly cold, the sap flows are prone to go to the upper part of the
trees. Therefore, collectors have to wait until the day when the temperature is hotter in order
to gather sap by taking advantage of a tap and a tube.
Subsequently, the collected sap is poured into a storage tank prior to undergoing the
evaporating process where the sap is converted into maple syrup. Then, the maple syrup is
packaged into bottles in order to either be used as additives to specific types of foods such
as cakes and cookies or be sold to the store. Lastly, the store makes use of the maple syrup
with a view to making the delicious pancakes for sale
People have different job expectations for jobs. Some
people prefer to do the same job for the same company,
whereas others prefer to change jobs frequently.
TASK 2:
ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF EACH VIEWPOINT
These days, people go to work for distinct purposes. While some individuals opt
for remaining their position, others try numerous jobs in their life. In this essay,
I would shed light on the merits and demerits of each point of view.
On the one hand, there are several cogent benefits that lead to many people
choosing to stay in the same position . One of which is stability, this is because
stability helps employees to focus on the acquisition of experience and expertise
in their specific profession. In the long run, they will be able to prove their
capacity and loyalty to the company, which may help them to possess higher
salary or even chances of promotion during their working process. Nevertheless,
sticking to the same job over their life might sound tedious and monotonous. A
compelling example is that a teacher’s daily working routine comprises going to
school in the morning, meeting the same colleagues and students, teaching the
same lectures and going back home, which is a repetitive process. As a result,
this may lead to a gradual loss of enthusiasm for the job and decreasing
productivity.
On the other hand, the idea of changing jobs casually has its own attractiveness
as well. The main reason is that people opting for this path would have
opportunities to gain new knowledge and skills in various fields. Moreover, they
also may find their true passion and talent to pursue their life. However,
extensive job hopping can show a lack of loyalty and professionalism to
employers. As a consequence, this may make potential recruiters reluctant to
invest their time and revenues to have these employees.
In conclusion, both sticking to a job and a company for a long period and
regular regular job hopping have their own specific merits and demerits. It is
recommended that people should take this into consideration before making a
choice in their career path.
SAMPLE:
In this day and age, each person has a different perspective towards their occupations.
Many people have a preference for staying in the same organization while others have a
tendency to change careers on a regular basis. From my perspective, whether workers
choose job-hopping or job holding, there are specific benefits and drawbacks for them.
To commence with, it is conspicuous that workers can reap a wide range of benefits from
changing occupations regularly, however, this trend will also make them face a plethora of
setbacks. On the one hand, job hopping is tremendously beneficial for workers as it provides
them with opportunities to try different jobs and decide the best career path. It is
incontrovertible that after experiencing ample careers, workers can have in-depth insights
into different fields and explore their hidden capabilities. This is of paramount significance for
workers as they can consider all their strengths and weaknesses with a view to opting for the
occupations that are suitable for them. On the other hand, workers stand high chances of
lacking adequate and necessary skills for a stable and permanent job. If one tries too many
occupations, he is likely to be OVERWHELMED WITH excessive knowledge of different
fields and unable to focus on a certain domain afterwards.
What is more, although job holding is tremendously beneficial, its pernicious impacts should
not be overlooked. Obviously, doing the same occupation in the same organization offers the
workers chances to achieve the greatest success in their career. After working in a specific
domain for many years, workers can have more experience and training, which can help
them improve their expertise. Thus, they stand high chances of succeeding in moving up the
career ladder and having a decent livelihood. In contrast, working in the same corporation for
a long time may take a heavy toll on workers' emotions and satisfaction with their jobs. That
workers follow the same working routine again and again may result in boredom and lazy
attitudes towards working. A plummet in productivity and working performance is an
inevitable repercussion.
In conclusion, both job holding and job hopping have certain merits and demerits. Thus, it is
highly recommended that workers take into consideration every aspect carefully before
choosing their working style
TASK 2; The
world's natural resources are consumed at an
ever-increased rate. What are the dangers of this situation?
What should be done?
The overhaulingof natural resources has evolved as a jumbo-threat in
recent years. This alarming trend poses a number of serious
impediments to the growth of health of the world and must be
addressed with several actions. In this essay, this problem and its
possible solutions would be discussed.
The increasingly high level of natural resources exploitation can be
hazardous in many ways. The most obvious threat is that once the
resources come to the verge of depletion, humans would have to face
the scarcity of fuels and materials. When oil becomes scanty and more
expensive, transport and heating would become less accessible and
affordable to most people. The paucity of resources also leads to
stagnation in other industries. A compelling example is that there would
not be adequate wood for furniture production and not enough seafood
for food processing. This can threaten the business of thousands of
companies, as well as the employment of millions of workers in these
fields.
However,some measures can be taken to mitigate the problem of
over-consuming natural resources. The most practical measure is to
lower the demand for energy in every household. This can be done by
mass-producing energy-efficient household appliances and selling them
at a low price. Energy demand may also be cut by making saving energy
the focus in propaganda campaigns in various media channels. Another
sustainable solution is to promote environmentally-friendly technology.
For instance, solar cells are now sold in small quantities and at a
relatively high price; they should be made more affordable for the
public.Finally, the conservation and recovery of natural resources,
including seafood and forests, must be regulated by law.
In conclusion, the overexploitation of the world’s resources may result in
dire consequences , causing detrimental effects on numerous industries
and people’s lives. Nevertheless, strong solutions, such as reducing
energy use and resource conservation and recovery laws, must be
implemented to tackle this problem.
SAMPLE:
In this day and age, the consumption of the world’s natural resources such as oil, forests and
freshwater is burgeoning at a hazardous ratio. As a result, this may pose critical hazards to
the environment, the food chain and a wide range of species, including humanity. Therefore,
a coordinated endeavour from both individuals, authorities and societies should be made to curb
this burning issue
To commence with,it is conspicuous that the ongoing consumption of the non-re resources is
painting a bleak picture to the whole world. First and foremost, that the world’s natural
resources are being used at an alarming rate may exert a pernicious effect on the
atmosphere and biodiversity. It is incontrovertible that if deforestation and the consumption
of freshwater keep occurring, the habitats of the flora and fauna will be deteriorated. As a
consequence, many animals and plants will be on the verge of extinction, which may
eventuate in pernicious repercussions such as detrimental damage to the food chain.
Second, humans will also have to suffer from negative consequences due to the
overconsumption of the world's natural resources. Should a large number of oils and
freshwater be exploited, a serious lack of necessary resources may happen in the
foreseeable future. Moreover, trees and plants play a pivotal role in reducing the carbon
footprint and releasing the oxygen and without them, the air quality is likely to be
exacerbated. Consequently, humanity and other species will stand a high chance of being
infected by cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, which may pose a threat to their lives.
In the wake of the dangerous impacts that the aforementioned tendency may cause, the
whole community should join hands with a view to tackling the problem. In terms of
residents, they should pay more attention to the natural resources and try to use alternative
energy such as solar and wind energy, which are almost inexhaustible. This will save a large
amount of non-renewable resources. Moving onto a larger scale, the press and social media
should propagate the problems that the animals and humans are facing due to the
overconsumption of natural energy and praise philanthropists who make a contribution to
save the non-renewable resources. Therefore, this will have a bandwagon effect on the
citizens and raise their awareness to a greater extent. Lastly, the authorities all around the
world should put an emphasis on making campaigns to promote the mass production of
renewable energy conversion devices such as solar panels and make them more affordable.
Also, heavy restrictions and bans of illegally exploiting natural resources should be imposed
for the sake of the environment.
In conclusion, the ever-increasing consumption of natural resources will not only affect the
environment but also all species, including animals and humans. Therefore, residents, social
groups and state authorities should take measures to protect such resources.

Given is the line graph illustrating the number of marriages and divorces in the
UK from 1956 to 2006.
Overall, it is conspicuous that the quantities of all marriages and first marriages
decreased, the opposite is true for those of divorces and remarriages. Moreover,
the amount of marriages consistently registered the highest figures over the
period.
As can be seen, the numbers of all marriages and first marriages were over 400
thousand and around 350 thousand, respectively, in 1956. Between 1956 and
around 1974, the data for all marriages followed an erratic pattern with an
overall increase to hit the peak at approximately 480 thousand in about 1974.
Afterwards, the amount of all marriages declined to end up at roughly 280
thousand at the end of the period. In terms of the number of first marriages, this
figure soared up to peak at around 390 thousand in about 1970 before dropping
to only 150 thousand in 2006.
Furthermore, when it comes to the remaining data, the numbers of divorces and
remarriages were roughly 50 thousand and 20 thousand, correspondingly, in
1956. Throughout the period , the figure for divorces went up to over 100
thousand in the last year of the period, doubling its initial figure. As regards the
amount of remarriages , this data rose and surpassed that of divorce in around
1970 at roughly 110 thousand and reached approximately 140 thousand in 2006,
which is seven times higher than its beginning figure.
SAMPLE:
Given is a line chart illustrating the number of different types of marriages and divorces in
the UK over the timescale of 50 years commencing 2006.
Overall, it is conspicuous that the number of remarriages and divorces experienced a similar
upward trend. Also noteworthy is that despite seeing a significant decline, the figure for first
marriages retained its dominant position as the most popular types of marriages.
As transparent from the diagrams, the number of first marriages initially took the lead at 350
thousands, followed by that of remarriages and divorces, which consisted of 70 thousands
and 20 thousands respectively. In the following years, an increase of 40 thousands can be
witnessed in the figure for first marriages prior to decreasing to 300 thousands in 1976.
Meanwhile, the number of divorces and remarriages shared the same rising tendency to an
approximately equivalent amount of 150 thousand.
What is more, the next few decades, the figures for divorces and remarriages experienced a
mild fluctuation between 100,000 and 170,000 and ended at 170,000 and 100,000
correspondingly. Moreover, the figure for first marriages witnessed a consistent decline to its
lowest point of 180,000, higher than that of other kinds of marriages. Lastly, it is apparent
that the number of all marriages commenced with 400 thousand cases and dramatically
decreased to lower than 300,000 at the end of the given period
TASK 2:
In many parts of the world children and teenagers are
committing more crimes. Why is this happening? How should
children or teenagers be punished?
In many countries worldwide, there has been an exorable number of crimes
committed by juveniles. In this essay, I will look at the justifications for this
trend and propose several solutions to decelerate the amount of crime
committed by youth.
There are some cogent factors leading to this phenomenon. One of which is
unemployment inflation. This is because the number of young educated people
is more than the number of vacancies and inflation increases day by day.
Therefore, due to the lack of jobs, unemployed teenagers commit crimes such as
robbery, kidnapping, and many others to get money for square meals. In
addition, the hectic schedule of guardians is also responsible. More specifically,
both parents work for bread and butter for the family and have insufficient time
for their children. Consequently , parents cannot provide their juveniles with
moral and social values, and children watch crime programs on their television
without guardians. As a result, a lack of social and moral values incentivise
them to commit distinct crimes.
However, there are certain ways to decelerate this issue. Firstly, the guardians of
youngsters need to observe and focus on their children’s lives at homes and
schools. To explain, parents would be required to pay more attention to what
their juveniles are doing at home and how they feel as they grow up and
encounter various changes.Another compelling solution is that guardians and
tutors of young people need to conduct and incentivise them to go on the right
track. As a consequence, when children are determined, they will become
educated children and good residents to contribute themself for a better world.
In conclusion,the rise in youth crime can be linked to factors such as job
opportunities or those related to at home or school. Nevertheless, despite these
problems, there are some ways to deal with them that focus on the reasons why
young people decide to commit crimes.

To begin with, there are some cogent factors leading to this phenomenon. One
of which is the lack of parental care. More specifically, many adults have a
hectic schedule of working to raise their family and do not have adequate time
for their children. Consequently, as teenagers, their children may easily admire
and imitate the criminals on social media, leading them to committing crimes
for attention. For instance, if their parents are always working, a young person
may shoplift and even hope they get caught so that their parents will be forced
to give them some attention.Besides that,children’s social life is another
justification. This is because teenagers might have good relationships with
unethical people which are the factors that would promote and turn them into
the wrong path.
However, there are certain ways to decelerate this issue. Firstly, the guardians of

SAMPLE:
In this day and age, the rate of juvenile delinquency is increasing at an alarming ratio. It
seems likely that children’s parents, friends and the development of violent films and games
are to blame for this trend. Therefore, a coordinated endeavour should be made by
individuals, societies and the authorities to curb the problem.
To commence with, there are a plethora of rationales behind the ever-increasing number of
young criminals. First and foremost, lack of parental care is one of the main culprits behind
the increase in juvenile crimes. It is incontrovertible that in the absence of parental care,
children have a tendency to socialize with their friends, who may exert an influential effect on
their mindset. Unfortunately, if kids, especially those who are at an impressionable age,
happen to play with bad friends, they may be lured into committing wrongdoings and in the
worst scenarios, taking part in crimes. Second, the ever-increasing prosperity of violent
games and films also make a major contribution to the popularity of juvenile delinquency.
After being exposed to violent scenes, their mindset may be perniciously affected and their
actions may become more aggressive. As a prime instance, GTA V allows players to
become a notorious criminal and participate in crime activities, which may cause them to
resort to real delinquency.
In the wake of the detrimental consequences that the aforementioned trend may cause,
measures should be taken by the whole society for the sake of the children. In terms of
individuals, parents and teachers should teach their children to stay away from bad friends
and punish them when they participate in wrongdoings. Therefore, kids can differentiate
between righteous and wrong activities, which will improve their concepts and reduce their
chances of committing crimes in the future. On a larger scale, the press and social media
should propagate about the detrimental consequences of young crimes and criticize and
heavily punish juvenile criminals with a view to setting examples for other kids. This will
make those who have intentions of committing crimes reconsider their decisions. Lastly, the
governments should put an emphasis on making campaigns to limit the ages of violent
games and films. Thus, children will have less opportunities to immerse into such a violent
environment, which will reduce the rates of young crimes.
In conclusion, the ever-increasing ratio of young delinquency may be attributed to
deprivation of parental care and improvement of violent games and films. Therefore, it is
highly recommended that the whole community join hands to deal with this trend.

The bar chart below shows Scotland’s exports to the rest of the UK and the
rest of the world for the year 2014.
-
Given is the bar chart illustrating the income of the Scottish exports in 9 areas to
the rest of the UK and that to the rest of the world in 2014.
Overall, it is conspicuous that the rest of the world had a much greater impact
on Scotland’s exportation income than that of the UK in all industries, except
for electrical and instrument engineering.
As can be seen, in terms of figures of the rest of the UK, the dominant area was
in chemicals, mineral products which contributed 5 billion into the Scottish
economy. Besides, the amount of money that Scotland’s exports earn from
manufacturing of food and drink was 4.4 billion, followed by that of electrical
and instrument engineering at 4 billion. As regards metals,mechanical and
transport equipment , the income of Scotland from this industry was 2.1 billion,
compared to 1.7 billion in business services and finances, hotels and restaurant
services. The remaining data consist of similar figures ranging from 0.6 billion
to 1.7 billion.
Furthermore, when it comes to the data of the rest of the world, the amount of
money that Scotland earned from business services and finances, hotels and
restaurant services occupied the highest position at 13.8 billion. Meanwhile the
rest of the world allocated 9.5 billions for chemical and mineral products,
followed by 8.2 billions of wholesale and retail. In addition, the figure for
manufacturing of food and drink was 5.8 billion, while that of other
manufacturing was 5.9 billion. Moreover, the entire data had the relatively
identical figures, ranging from 2.3 billion to 3 billion.
HW: Some people think that all university students sHould
study whatever they like. Others believe that they should only
be allowed to study subjects that will be useful in the future,
such as those related to science and technology.DISCUSS
BOTH VIEW AND GIVE YOUR OPINION
People have different views about whether students or universities should bear
the responsibility of deciding the subject taught in tertiary institutes. In this
essay, I would elaborate on both views and give my perspective.
On the one hand, there are compelling reasons why people are inclined to the
idea that universities should only offer subjects that will be useful in the future.
Firstly, allowing students to select subjects at universities would enhance
students’ performance in the class and prevent students from studying subjects
that they do not enjoy. More specifically, students need to be exposed to
multiple technology-related courses, but if they are forced to study
programming while their interests lie in literature, it would take a toll on their
academic performance. The learning process is more interesting for students if
they have the opportunity to pick their subjects. Additionally, some students
possess talents across a wide variety of fields. If we integrate some cultural and
arts subjects into science courses, young people can explore diverse fields.
Consequently, this proposed change will provide them with the opportunity to
learn more about a variety of subjects and develop new skills.
On the other hand, medical, engineering, and IT courses tend to dominate
careers , compared to the arts. People argue for allowing students to study
technology-related subjects because they have high employment opportunities
after graduation. Innovations are abounding. With the advent of new research
areas and subject topics, technologies have become better. By specialising in a
specific skill set, graduates may have greater job prospects and get
higher-paying jobs, which may lead to a higher standard of living. Therefore,
for the sake of students’ better future, they concentrate more on the prevalent
subjects since the employment opportunities will be based on this technical
knowledge.
In conclusion, some individuals do not believe in studying only core subjects.
However, it is always beneficial to obtain a strong foundation in them to ensure
a successful future.
SAMPLE:
Since time immemorial, education has played a pivotal role in supporting students’ holistic
development. Thus, many people are under the assumption that students should be able to
choose their favorite subjects that they want to learn while others hold a firm conviction that
there ought to be some compulsory subjects relating to their future career such as science
and technology. From my perspective, I adhere to the latter school of notion.
On the one hand, it is conspicuous that students will reap a wide range of benefits from
being able to learn whatever they prefer. First and foremost, being allowed to learn subjects
according to students’ interests and preferences is tremendously beneficial for their
emotions. Obviously, that students are forced to study subjects that they dislike may take a
heavy toll on their emotions and attitudes towards learning and eventuate in their feelings of
boredom and laziness. In contrast, being capable of learning what they truly love will drive
their interests, inspire creativity and promote innovative thinking. Second, what students
learn should be in accordance with their capabilities in order to maximize their outcomes. It
is incontrovertible that each person has a different capacity and should be provided with
opportunities to cultivate their aptitudes because if not, it will be a waste of potential
prodigies. Should all students be made to study technology and science, their nations may
suffer from lack of workers in artistic fields, which may exert a pernicious effect on their
countries’ overall improvement.
On the other hand, there is no denying that subjects that are of paramount significance to
students’ career lives such as technology and science should be made mandatory for the
sake of students. Clearly, by learning technology and science, students stand higher
chances of having a successful career path. It is undeniable that in this era of
ever-advancing technology, jobs relating to science such as IT or scientist offer a higher
salary than traditional occupations such as writers. Therefore, it is highly recommended that
students be taught technology and science so that they can have a well-paid job and earn a
decent likelihood. What is more, at present, learning technology is of indispensable
necessity for students in their daily activities. With the advancement of technology comes the
ever-increasing use of machines and robots for houseworks and education, which force
students to have a specific level of expertise in technology. As a typical instance, in order to
use slides and the Internet for completing their school assignments or use a microwave or a
washing machine for doing houseworks, students will need adequate knowledge regarding
the functions and structures of such high-tech gadgets.
In conclusion, although children should be provided with chances to learn their favorite
subjects as this acts as a motivation for them, being made to learn useful knowledge such as
technology is also necessary. Therefore, it is highly recommended that schools take into
consideration their students’ strengths and weaknesses before making them study any
subject.

Given is the bar chart illustrating the preferences of movie views of 5 groups of
age about 5 categories of movies.
Overall, every group of age is fond of action films. Moreover, people from 36 to
55 years olds are into watching all kinds of films.
As can be seen, in terms of animation, the viewers in the group 10-15 occupy
the highest position at 50% ,followed by those from 16-20 at 30% which triples
that of those from 21-35 and 36-55 As regards horror and thrillers, the data for
groups 10-15 constitute 40%,similar to that of 16-20, while the same data
appears in 21-35 and 36-55 at 10%.
Furthermore, when it comes to remaining categories, as for documentaries, 40%
of people in the group 36-55 are into this kind of film while proportions for
those aged 21-35 and 56+ have the same figure at 30%. Besides, regarding
romantic movies, the percentage of people who are in the group 36-55 accounts
for 40%, doubling those who are 56+. In addition, the figure for those aged
21-35 is 30%. Moreover, in terms of action movies, 30% of viewers are in the
age from 16-20, equalling that of those aged 21-35 and tripling figures of
groups 10-15 and 65+. Finally, the proportion of people between 36-55 occupies
20%.
SAMPLE:
Given is the chart illustrating the choices of different genres of film of certain age groups
at a cinema.
Overall, it is conspicuous that the majority of children from 10-15 have a preference for
animation, as opposed to that of action. Also noteworthy is that those whose ages are
from 36-55 experience all kinds of films.
As transparent from the diagram, in terms of action film, most of its fans are from 21-35
and 16-20, at an equal amount of 30 people, tripling that of children under 15. Moreover,
the number of viewers aged from 36-55 who prefer watching romantic and
documentaries occupy the highest position, consisting of 40 people. Additionally, the
number of people aged over 56 that have interest in viewing documentaries and
romance are 30 and 20 people respectively.
What is more, regarding horror and thrillers, this type shares the same number of fans
who belong to the 16-20 and 10-15 age groups at 40 people. Also, the figures for
viewers aged from 36-55 and 21-35 who prefer thrillers and animated films are equal at
10 people. Lastly, the number of children under 15 who are interested in animation takes
the lead at 50 people.
In many countries today, people buy a range of household
goods (television, microwave, oven and rice cookers). Is it
positive or negative development?
In these days and ages, due to the development of technology, household
commodities play a pivotal role in every sphere of all families. In my opinion,
this is an advanced movement in modern life, not only benefits for consumers in
general, but also makes great profits for business in particular.
To begin with, from the user perspective, electrical equipment such as
microwaves and rice cookers significantly assist consumers to perform their
daily tasks faster and more conveniently. Therefore, they can spend more time
with their family to build profound connections within family members, which
is more imperative than wasting time in the kitchen for unnecessary activities.
Besides, due to the fast past of life, people are fully occupied by work and tend
to consume unhealthy meals like fast food to save time. In this case, the
microwave oven and rice cooker is the eminent solution to tackle this issue.
This is because with these productions people are able to straightforwardly cook
and enjoy scrumptious meals at home without withstanding long and hard
cooking processes.
Moreover, from an enterprise perspective, manufacturing household goods such
as television, microwave ovens and rice cookers has established a potential and
profitable market. Thanks to immense demand for those household
commodities, more factories have been opened and operated, resulting in
addressing unemployment problems and incentivising development of relative
industries like electric, semiconductor, and other material manufacturers. In
addition, good business would contribute more taxed money to the
government’s coffer to enhance the citizens’ quality of life by developing
infrastructure such as building more hospitals, schools.
In conclusion, because of aforementioned advantages,this development is highly
beneficial to consumers and businesses in modern times.
SAMPLE:
In this era of ever-advancing technology, household appliances are becoming omnipresent in
many families all over the world due to their convenience. In my opinion, although these
goods are tremendously beneficial, their detrimental impacts on health and behaviour can not
be underestimated.
On the one hand, it is conspicuous that people can reap a wide range of benefits from
domestic equipment. First and foremost, household goods play a pivotal role in every family.
In today's fast-paced world, most people lead a hectic lifestyle and allocate a large amount of
time for recreational activities and job prospects , which leave them with inadequate spare
time for completing their housework. In this respect, household appliances are of
indispensable necessity for citizens to curb the aforementioned problem. Second, the
significance of household goods in a nation's development is immeasurable. It is undeniable
that the ubiquity of domestic equipment not only fosters economic prosperity but also
provides occupations for their residents.
On the other hand, there is no denying that the omnipresence of domestic appliances may
take a heavy toll on the users. Obviously, cutting-edge devices such as televisions or
computers may exert a pernicious effect on the users’ health. These high-tech gadgets release
some type of rays and radiation waves that may wreak havoc on humans’ eyes and brains.
Short-sighted symptoms and brain damage are inevitable repercussions of the overuse of
these technologies. What is more, with the over-reliance on domestic equipment for
household chores comes the over-dependence of residents. That people can effortlessly take
care of their housework with the help of goods contribute to the ever-increasing laziness of
many people, eventuating in a sedentary lifestyle. As a result, the chances of their suffering
from musculoskeletal disorders and growth retardation become more possible.
In conclusion, the ever-increasing use of household equipment is simultaneously beneficial
and detrimental. Therefore, it is highly recommended that residents take advantage of these
goods in the wisest way without depending too much on them.

Some people believe that employers should not be concerned
about the way their employees dress, but the quality of their
work. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
There are ongoing arguments whether an employee should be required to have a
good dressing sense. Few organisations are supporting this while others are
opposing it and confessing that efficiency of work should be considered more
than their look. I believe, good looking appearance of workers is important,
nevertheless, quality of work also plays an essential role.
On the one hand, technological advancement is allowing people to work from
their places without reaching a company. For instance,work-at-home has been
more popular than in the past.In such situations,work efficiency of the
employees will increase considerably. There are a variety of facilities available
in the present day,where the customers,co-workers and companies don't even
see their employees,they are only focusing on the quality of work done by them.
In such conditions people are not judged by their appearances.
On the other hand,some companies offer jobs and gather their staff under one
roof so they are expecting their employees to appear attractive.Organizations are
very restricted on this concern because having a good appearance will not only
make them feel good but also create an appealing working environment.Which
is prioritised for healthy environment in working place,by doing so,companies
are presuming that they can boost working motivation. Moreover,a professional
appearance when employees are meeting other organisations will create an
impression in a positive manner and business can also be developed
inadvertently. Viet lại đạ chơ răng

In conclusion, depending on the categories people are working in, they should
be very cautious about how they are presenting themselves and nevertheless
work quality would be preferred more than anything.

There are ongoing arguments whether an employee should be required to have a
good dressing sense. Many are of the belief that corporations should prioritise
quality work over appropriate workplace attire. In my opinion, there are limits
to this sentiment; however, it is largely justified as other areas are more crucial
to success.
Those in favour of a strict dress code argue that it fosters professionalism.
Appearance is important not only for clients and customers but also workers
themselves. An employee who dresses well for work is similar to an actor
preparing for a performance. The appearance of professionalism is likely to
engender the same level of diligence to their work. This becomes part of a cycle
as customers notice the attention to detail and workers become aware that they
are essentially performing. For instance, professions that require uniforms such
as doctors and police fully embody their public roles.
However, the quality of the work itself is paramount. In recent years,
corporations have relaxed dress codes in recognition of this fact. For example,
many technology companies in Silicon Valley including Facebook and Google
are famous for a more casual approach to attire. This policy begins with the
CEOs and executives who eschew traditional suits for jeans, normal shirts, and
comfortable shoes. This signals that the success of a company depends more on
the output of their work. An employee at such a company who dresses well but
cannot code or contribute meaningfully to a high-achieving team is in fact a
hindrance to success. The focus on inner qualities and capabilities is reflective
of a broader social shift that places less value on factors extrinsic to true
achievement.
In conclusion, the minor benefits of dress codes for professionalism are
outweighed by the recognition of the importance of real work. It is
recommended that companies should strive to uphold the value with tangible
impact.
SAMPLE:
In this day and age, many companies’ managers have requirements for their employees’
choice of clothing. Many people are under the assumption that employers should put a greater
emphasis on their workers’ performance rather than the way they dress. In my opinion,
although what workers choose to wear is of paramount significance, more attention should be
paid to their productivity.
On the one hand, it is conspicuous that opting for suitable clothing in a working environment
is of indispensable necessity. Obviously, employees’ choices of dressing represent their
characteristics and attitudes, which are tremendously beneficial for interviews. It is
undeniable that if one dresses too gorgeously or recklessly in an interview, he or she is
unlikely to be accepted as the interviewers will consider them as neglectful and uncommitted.
Contrariwise, interviewees who put on formal clothes that are appropriate for the working
environment will certainly give recruiters an amazing first impression, which will increase
their employment opportunities. What is more, there are a plethora of occupations that
require suitable clothes to maximise the performance as the flexibility, politeness and safety
of different clothes are distinctive. As a prime example, advertisers often choose polite and
luxurious clothes when making contracts with clients with a view to showing their
professional and credibility.
On the other hand, there is no denying that instead of being concerned about employees’
clothes, employers should focus on their personality and capability. First and foremost, a high
degree of productivity and working quality plays a pivotal role in maintaining the reputation
of a company. Without skillful and productive workers, an organisation will be lagged behind
and unlikely to be successful no matter how professional their appearance is. Second,
clothing is incapable of conveying one’s experience and skills at work. There are heaps of
important traits that the way people dress can not transfer such as teamwork, leadership,
business acumen or conscientiousness. Therefore, judging a person’s capacity through what
they wear seems to be misguided and irrational.
In conclusion, although a good choice of dressing is necessary under certain circumstances
such as interviews or specific workplace, productivity is the most important part deciding the
success of a company. It is highly recommended that employers take notice of employees’
clothing and quality at work.

Task 1: The charts below show the internet use in different
purposes in Australia in 2010,2011 and the percentage by
users. Summarise the information by selecting and reporting
the main features and make comparisons where relevant.
Given are the bar charts illustrating the internet utilisation of various groups of
age in distinct categories in Australia in 2010.
Overall, it is conspicuous that the data of emailing occupied the highest
position, the opposite is true for social media.
As can be seen, about 76% of Australians use internet for emailings, while that
of paying bills online and social media were around 45% and 42%, respectively.
More specifically, in terms of social media, the proportion of people aged from
18-25 dominated the top of the list at nearly 99%, followed by that of 26-40 and
40-60 at approximately 81% and 61%, correspondingly. Meanwhile, the rate for
elderly residents between 60-65 was just under 40% and that of those who were
above 65 was 22%.
Furthermore, the data of paying bills online and emailings shared a similar
figure. Surprisingly, when it comes to remaining categories, senior citizens who
aged above 65 registered the highest position at 80%, whereas that of
youngsters from 18-25 was just over 60%. Besides, the percentage of the group
of residents between 40 and 60 was roughly 79%, while the figures for whom
from 26-40 and 60-65 stood at about 62% and 71%, accordingly.
SAMPLE:
Given are the bar charts illustrating the different purposes of using the Internet In
Australia in 2010,2011 and the proportion comparison between these purposes.
Overall, it is conspicuous that the percentage of people aged over 65 using the
Internet for payings bills online occupied the highest position, as opposed to that of
social media. Also noteworthy that emailings was the most popular use of the
Internet.
As transparent from the diagrams, the percentage of people using the Internet for
emailing purposes took the lead at 75%, more than 20% higher than that of social
media and payings bills online. Moreover, in terms of social media, the majority of
people used the Internet for this category was teengers aged from 18 to 25 at almost
100%, followed by that of people whose age was about 26-40 and 40-60, which
accounted for 80% and 70% correspondingly. In contrast, the figure for those aged
over 60 ranked lowest at more than 20%, approximately two times lower than that of
people aged 60-65.
What is more, the proportion of residents aged 40-60 and over 65 who use the
Internet for paying bills online and emailings were equivalent at 80%. Meanwhile, the
figures for citizens who belong to the 18-25, 26-40 and 60-65 using the Internet for
payings bills online and emailings shared the similar amount of 60%, 65% and 70%
respectively.
In most of the companies, elderly people hold top level positions due to their
experience and reliance. However, there is an argument that youngsters can also
be appointed in higher managerial positions. This essay completely agrees with
this statement and explains why the active participation of youths is necessary
for the growth and development of a company.
To begin with, in the current scenario, younger people are bustling with new
ideas and they are not hesitant to implement them in their businesses. This is
because they analyse the current trends and are aware of market demands and
customer’s requirements. In addition to it, they are open to feedback from their
team members and end users. Constant change and enhancement through
technologies keeps their businesses more successful. To exemplify, tech giants
like Bill Gates and Steve Jobs started their companies Microsoft and Apple at a
young age even before completing their college. During their times, both were
successful young businessmen and now they are an inspiration to many
youngsters.
Furthermore, young leaders due to their age factors easily mingle with their
team and create a friendly working environment. This increases their rapport
with their colleagues and enhances the productivity of the organisation. When
the employees are satisfied with their management and job, they can be more
loyal and contribute immensely for the development of the company. In today’s
world, there are many entrepreneurs who successfully run their start-ups solely
depending on their workforce with less investment.
In conclusion, when youngsters are in top-notch positions in an organisation,
their fresh ideas, successful ways of implementing them and rapport with team
members would bring success to their businesses.
SAMPLE:
In this day and age, the highest positions in corporations such as leaders or directors are often
held by senior workers. Nevertheless, many people are under the assumption that the young
generation is also capable of leading companies. From my perspective, although both
generations have their own strengths, older workers are still better at becoming leaders.
On the one hand, it is believed by some that young people have the ability and potential to
succeed in being leaders. First and foremost, quick-wittedness and activeness are considered
as one of the strongest points of the youth when being compared with senior workers. It is
incontrovertible that old people often have difficulties in keeping up with the latest changes
and managing a whole working system due to their age-related issues such as stagnation and
inadaptability, precluding them from operating at best. Contrariwise, not only are most young
workers physically and mentally healthier but also more percipient than their older
counterparts, which enable them to keep abreast of cutting-edge technology and coordinate
the organizations better. Second, the youth have a tendency to be more aspirational and have
more desires to be successful. Undeniably, as the old leaders have achieved certain
accomplishments, their targets are becoming lesser, driving them to be more neglected and
unfocused on their assignments. Meanwhile, young workers have a tendency to be more
target-oriented and always strive to improve themselves, which is of paramount significance
in becoming a leader.
On the other hand, there is no denying that there are many indispensable qualities that senior
leaders possess. Obviously, experience is the most clear superiority of old people’s capacity
to become leaders compared to the youth. With the longer working period, these people had
more working experience, underwent a plethora of obstacles and made lots of mistakes,
thereby having more opportunities to ameliorate their leadership and hone their management
capabilities. Thus, letting senior workers be in charge of leading positions is less risky and
highly recommended for the sake of comprehensive development of their companies. What is
more, old workers are usually more careful and disciplined than their younger counterparts. It
is indisputable that the youth are inclined to be impulsive, narcissistic and easily affected by
emotions, which may take a heavy toll on the important decisions of the companies.
Therefore, significant decision-making positions should be held by senior workers, who are
more stubborn and thoughtful.
In conclusion, despite being superior over old people under specific circumstances, young
people are not qualified enough to hold leading positions due to their narcissism and
inexperience. Hence, it is highly recommended that senior leaders preside over important
positions in corporations for the companies’ sake.
SAMPLE:
Given the formidable responsibilities of managerial positions, many people
argue that only experienced individuals are appropriate for this position. From
my perspective, young people also provide distinctive benefits regarding the
assumption of this chief position.
On the one hand, it is indisputable that senior people can have better leadership
skills with more experience and acquired knowledge. Since the global business
environment is changing rapidly, it is difficult for a junior employer with little
working experience to deal with unexpected situations. Furthermore, people at
older age tend to gain more respect in comparison to younger ones. It is
undeniable that activities at work including advising and mentoring rely to a
great extent on experience, accumulated knowledge and social competencies.
Thus, people have a tendency to follow older people’s advice, hence smoother
business operations.
On the other hand, appointing young individuals as managers would also bring
numerous benefits to companies. The primary reason for this is innovative
perspectives, which older employers may lack. Therefore, a wide range of
international companies have been operated by young, talented leaders in the
last few decades. For instance, Steve Job took Apple from near bankruptcy to
the world’s most admired company by his brilliant designs at a very young age
(iPhone idea, signature product). Moreover, better physical condition enables
young people to shoulder greater responsibility and work more productively
under pressure than old ones.
In conclusion, although old individuals can shoulder weighty responsibilities as
leaders, I believe high-ranking positions can also held by the young generation
considering their considerable potential

Given are two bar charts illustrating the cost rising of numerous kinds of food
between 2007 and 2014 and the changes in consumption of underprivileged of
the same products from 2007 to 2012 in the UK
Overall, it is conspicuous that the increase of fish’s price occupied the highest
position, the opposite is true for vegetables. Moreover, flour is the most
prevalent consumption in low-income families, as opposed to that of fish.
As can be seen, in terms of the first bar chart , the rising cost of fish dominated
the top of the list at approximately 36%, while those of fruit and flour shared the
same figure at about 34%. Besides, the price of cheese went up by exactly 30%.
As regards 2 last categories of food, the data of soft drinks and vegetables
registered at about 29% and 25%, respectively.
Furthermore, when it comes to the second bar chart, the consumption of fish in
poor families rose up by nearly 90%, while those of other food declined.
Meanwhile, the demands for fish and fruit flopped by roughly 20% and 18%,
correspondingly. In addition, the data of remaining items had relatively identical
figures of decrease , ranging from around 4% to 7%.
SAMPLE:
The first bar chart compares the price growth of different food groups from 2007 to 2014
while the second chart illustrates the changes in food consumption from 2007 to 2012.
Overall, vegetables were recorded at the lowest percentage in price increasing while fish had
the contrary trend. Meanwhile, flour was proven to be the highest purchased product by UK’s
low-income residents.
It can be seen from the bar chart that fish made up the most significant proportion at over
35%, followed by fruit and flour at about 34%. Meanwhile, cheese and soft drinks shared
comparable figures at approximately 30%. Vegetables stood at the smallest percentage at
merely 25%.
In the meantime, the amount of flour consumed dramatically increased up to 90%. In
contrast, the intake of vegetable, soft drinks and cheese slightly decreased for about 5%.
Similarly, the use of fruit and fish remarkably declined up to 20%.
The general public's well being has a profound impact on countries that experts
and even ordinary people have incessantly discussed. Opinions differ on
whether the inhabitants ought to take their health into consideration to perform
their social obligations rather for their own benefits. I totally disagree with the
former and this essay is an attempt to exemplify my disagreement with the
aforementioned statement.
To begin with, it is undeniable that the good health of all people will maintain
the stability and improve society in a variety of fields. This can be explained
easily by the rise of working productivity, the older age and the better quality of
life. In constant, if taking care of themself is not a social awareness, the
consequence is unexpected. The Covide19 pandemic is a typical example. This
disease did not only steal countless human lives, but also took the toll on the
whole world’s economy because of the lack of employees and the huge expense
for treating, or in the tourism industry such as the decrease of travellers due to
the fear of illness.
Furthermore, people should consider themselves as the social responsibility to
share the help hand with the governments to minimise the national problems in
health. In detail, if everyone has the awareness of protecting themselves and
others, the headache situation such as diseases spreading will be solved. Back to
Covid19, this disease was more and more prevalent partly due to the
carelessness in isolating the patient and the lack of knowledge about it
.However, in a positive way, a flotilla of countries have incentivised their
residents to possess the public responsibility in health and have the policy of
compulsory vaccination, which can limit the threat for children and also for the
society.
In conclusion, each citizen ought to regard themselves as a part of the society so
that they can shield them from detrimental diseases, not only for their own
benefits but also for the whole society.
SAMPLE:
Many people are under the assumption that residents should keep a fit health status
for the sake of the community rather than for their own. In my opinion, staying
healthy should be encouraged with a view to sustaining the mental and physical
status of oneself and stabilising the society’s orders.
On the one hand, it is conspicuous that citizens will reap a wide range of benefits
from keeping themselves healthy. First and foremost, weak and unhealthy bodies
have a tendency to be vulnerable to diseases and suffer from many health problems
which make them unable to work effectively. In contrast, people in good shape are
capable of achieving higher productivity and enjoying better quality of life. Therefore,
that humans take good care of their own health is of indispensable necessity in order
to secure high living standards, move forwards in the career ladder and extend their
expectancy. Second, health conditions go along with psychological state, which will
be tremendously beneficial for their daily activities. It is undeniable that healthy
people always feel more energetic and excited when taking part in any activities,
leading to more meaningful lives which are unreachable by the sluggish ones.
On the other hand, without having a good health status, the societies are unable to
function in the smoothest way. Clearly, that people become unhealthy and weakened
will exert a pernicious effect on their family members. Not only do they lack the
ability to have a decent likelihood but also have to pay a large sum of money for their
treatment. As a result, their families will have to cover the exorbitant payments for
the medicines and give them special care, which will pose critical hazards to their
families’ economy and time. What is more, given the context of the COVID-19
pandemic and other infectious diseases, poor sanitation and hygiene of a person
may take a heavy toll on the health of others, which will put an invisible strain on the
healthcare system and national budgets. Moreover, if too many citizens can not fulfil
their occupational responsibilities due to their physical limitations, companies and
governments are unable to reach their highest potential.
In conclusion, it is obvious that inability to lead a healthy lifestyle may pose untold
drawbacks on a personal, national and even global scale. Therefore, it is high
recommended that every person fulfil their duties of taking good care of their health

Given are two bar charts illustrating the proportions of full car driving licence
holders by genders and groups of age between 1975/76 and 2006 in Great
Britain.
Overall, it is conspicuous that the percentage of men having driving licence was
higher than that of women. Moreover, the number of people acquiring driving
degrees in 2006 was much more than that of 1975/1976.
As can be seen, in terms of men’s chart, in 1975/76, the percentage of elderly
people registered at the bottom of the list at about 35%, followed by those of
whom above 70 and youngsters from 17-20 were around 39% and 59%,
respectively. As regards remaining groups of ages’ figures, they consisted of
similar proportions, ranging from roughly 76% to 82%. Moving to 2006, the
percentage of young people between 17-20 possessing a driving licence was
nearly 39%, while that of those aged 21-29 was approximately 70%. Besides,
the entire data shared the similar figures from about 78% to 86%.
Furthermore, when it comes to women’s bar chart, in 1975/76, the proportion of
people from 30-39 having driving licence occupied the highest position at
around 50%, which is followed by those of 21-29 and 40-49 at nearly 41% and
39%, correspondingly. Besides, the figures for groups of age between 60-69,
50-59 and 17-20 had relatively identical data, ranging from roughly 17% to
22%. Interestingly, there was only approximately 5% of women who were over
70 acquiring driving licence. However, in 2006 the percentage of old citizens
who were above 70 was about 31%, equalling that of young people from 17-20
and nearly a half of those who were in groups 60-69 and 21-29. Finally, the
remaining groups of age possessed similar figures from about 75% to 80%.

Given are the bar graphs illustrating the proportion of drivers owning full driving licenses in
Great Britain by age and gender in individual years namely 1975/76 and 2006
Overall, it is conspicuous that the percentage of male holding full licenses exceeded that of
female’s. Also noteworthy is the fact that the women’s ownership of driving licenses
witnessed remarkable increments over the given timescale.
As transparent from the diagrams, in terms of men, in 1975/76, the proportion of full driving
licence holders aged 30-39 occupied the highest position at 83%, followed by that of the
40-49 and 21-29 age groups, which accounted for 81% and 79% respectively. In the 31 years’
time, the figure for those whose age ranges from 50 to 59 soared up to more than 90%, taking
the lead amongst all age groups. It is obvious that the percentage of full driving licence
owners aged 17-21 remained relatively unchanged throughout the given period.
What is more, regarding women, their licence ownership significantly increased between
1975/76 and 2006. In 1975/76, there was a mere 3% of women’s full driving licenses holders
aged over 70, however, this figure witnessed a dramatic rise to 30% in 2006. In 1975/76, the
figures for those who belong to 40-49 and 30-39 age groups consisted of 40% and 50%
correspondingly and jumped further to an equivalent amount of 80% in 2006. Lastly, the
proportion of women aged 60 to 69 having a full driving license in 2006 was 63%,
approximately quadrupling its beginning figure in 1975.76

Some countries have an ever-increasing proportion of population who are aged 15 and
younger. What is your opinion of the current and future effects it may have in those
countries?
In many countries, there has been a rapid growth in the percentage of
youngsters who are under 15. In my opinion, this might exert both positive and
negative effects on the progress of a nation. In this essay, I would emphasise the
current and upcoming consequences of this phenomenon.
On the one hand, the young generation has a vital role in the development of
their country. To exemplify, the youths are energetic, agile, creative and thus
they have good abilities to adapt to every situation that occurs in life and always
trying their best to come up with new ideas which can solve the problems. For
example, the majority of young people are expected to learn skills related to
science, art, technology as well as sports. As a result, the country will educate a
massive number of talented people and contribute a more educated workforce to
society, which would be attributed to the thriving economy and the prosperity of
the country.
On the other hand, a large number of teenagers can pose some drawbacks to
society. More specifically, the younger generation has a tendency to develop
their own interests and attitudes rather than following the conventional one.
Consequently, many heritages involved in cultures may lose their values and are
likely to be underrated. This can also lead to generation gap, which is
responsible for isolating people from both family and society, those between
two different age groups. In addition, as the expansion of population may even
cause some environmental issues and the lack of job opportunities,which would
do a disservice to the well - being of a country in the near future.
In conclusion, I would contend that the rising of the young population has both
merits and demerits in the nation's development and it is recommended that the
government should take this into consideration.

In this day and age, it is undeniable that the population of teenagers under the age of 15 is burgeoning
in many nations, which may exert an influential impact on the countries’ development. In my opinion,
although this trend may put a burdensome strain on many households and governments at present,
these kids are the future of the countries and will devote their strength and mindworks to the home
nations in the foreseeable future.
To commence with, at present, the ever-increasing percentage of the population aged under 15 years
old in many countries is taking a heavy toll on curricular competition and economic stability. First and
foremost, it is conspicuous that the more students attend tertiary education, the more competitive the
academic environment will be. Therefore, their parents have to invest heaps of money in securing
them with a good school for the sake of their future career path, which is impartial as the
poverty-stricken families are unable to afford the exorbitant higher tuition fees. As a result, the kids
from destitute families will be sent to vocational schools and forced to partake in labor-intensive
work, which may exert a pernicious effect on their satisfaction and give rise to the child labour.
Second, the burgeoning number of children under the age of 15 may pose critical hazards to the
countries’ economic prosperity. Obviously, not only does the under-aged children are incapable of
generating money but also requires a plethora of demands such as clothing, food,
accommodations and transportation, which may take a heavy toll on the overall economic
stability This problem associated with the fact that families have to pay for their children’s
extravagant tuition expenses will eventuate in an inevitable economic downturn.
Nevertheless, despite the current detrimental effects of the ever-increasing young population, these
youngsters are no doubt the future of every country. There is no denying that having many siblings in
the same house will make a contribution to the increase in happiness of the family and their parents,
especially after retirement. Clearly, when the elderly are out of work, their children who have become
adults will seek for occupations with a decent livelihood with a view to taking care of their parents
and repaying their upbringing. Thus, having many children who pay special attention to them will
make old residents’ later lives more satisfied and worthwhile. What is more, if provided with superb
education and occupation opportunities, the under-aged now would become the de facto to the
economy in the future and enable the countries to develop rapidly. Contrariwise, should the authorities
be incapable of ensuring adequate job prospects for these adults, the world will be thrown into chaos
and disarray. Ever-increasing crime and unemployment rates are inevitable repercussions, which will
deteriorate the safety and economy of the nations.
In conclusion, the present consequences of the burgeoning young population may pose untold
drawbacks to both the youngsters themselves and the economic stability. However, in the future, if
governments are able to create enough job opportunities for these children, the economic prosperity of
the country will be fostered.
Given are two maps illustrating the disparities of a city between 1950 and now.
Overall, it is conspicuous that the city has undergone a significant
transformation, especially in terms of infrastructure.
As can be seen, the map is divided into two parts, comprising the North and the
South of the river, which flows along the middle of the map. As regards the
North side of the river, the residential area has been enlarged due to the demand
for accommodation of the citizens.Besides, the width of the river has been
expanded to pave the way for creating lakes. Moreover, a dam has been
constructed in the East side of the map in order to slow the flow of the river.
Furthermore, when it comes to the South of the river, another bridge has been
built near the dam to connect two sides of the river. As for the middle of the
South side, a new business and residential zone was erected. Surprisingly, two
government’s buildings have been setted up, one of which is located in the
business district and the other situated in the residential area. In addition,to the
East, the airport station’s size has also been increased. Finally, the population of
the city has risen remarkably by ten times when compared to its initial figure in
1950.
Given are the maps illustrating differences between a sketch of a city in the year 1950
and the same city nowadays. 0
Overall, it is clear that the city underwent a dramatic transformation, especially in the
size of residential area and business district.
As can be seen, in 1950, in the center of the map was a bridge which was
tremendously beneficial in helping people travel between two sides of the city
separated by a river. Obviously, at present, the middle of the river becomes two large
lakes, therefore, authorities have to invest in construction of an additional bridge. In
the past, in the intersection of four major roads was a round place for business.
Nonetheless, by now, the business district has been enlarged and there have been
two more major roads.
Furthermore, it is easily seen that at present the residential area has become wider
compared to its size in 1950. What is more, in the year 1950, an airport was located in
the East of the map. Nowadays, the position of the airport remains unchanged,
however, it becomes bigger in size. Apparently, a new government building along with
a dam has been recently added to the map in the South and East respectively.

Task1:
Given are two tables illustrating the number of UK citizens going abroad by
reasons of visit and tourist destinations from 1994 to 1998.
Overall, it is conspicuous that the most prevalent reason why UK residents
travelled to other countries was for holiday. Moreover, the most attractive region
was Western Europe, the opposite was true for North America.
As can be seen at the first table, in terms of data of reason for holiday, the figure
for this category of purpose began at 15246 in 1994 then rose to peak at 20700
in the last year of the period, occupying the highest position. Besides, the
number of citizens paid visit to nations outside the UK was 3155 in 1994, after
which this data slightly increased to 3957 in 1998. As regards the figure of
purpose for visits to friends and relatives, it was recorded at 2689 in 1994 then
declined to 896 in the next year before climbing to 990 in 1998. As for the data
of other reasons, this figure was registered at 982 then followed an erratic
pattern with overall increase at 990 in the last year of the period. In addition, the
number of visits abroad by UK residents surged from 22072 in 1994 to 28828 in
1998.
Furthermore, when it comes to the remaining table, in 1994, there were 19371
UK inhabitants travelling to Western Europe ,while those of North America and
other areas were 919 and 1782, respectively. In the following year, the figure for
Western Europe declined to 18944, followed by the decreasing in North
America and other areas’ data to 914 and 1752, correspondingly. Turning to
1997, the quantity of UK residents paying visit to Western People rose to 21877,
while the figure for other areas increased to 1905 and that of North America
flopped to 167. In terms of 1997, the data of Western Europe and other areas
went up to 23661 and 2227, accordingly and there was a significant rise in
North America’s figure at 1559. In the last year of the period, the number of UK
citizens going to Western Europe, North America and other areas climbed to
24519, 1823 and 2486, in that order.
SAMPLE:
Given are the tables illustrating the number of rationales of foreign travelling and the
amount of British visitors in three destinations in the period from 1994 to 1998.
Overall, it is clear that holiday was the most ubiquitous reason why UK people go
abroad throughout the given period. Furthermore, the largest demographic of
residents opt to visit Western Europe.
As can be seen, initially, the amount of people who go abroad for holiday took the
lead at 15246 and soared up for the rest of the period, reaching its zenith of 20700 in
1998. Meanwhile, the figure for business ranked second at 3155 in 1994, followed by
visits to friends and relatives and other reasons which accounted for 2689 and 982
respectively. The data on business and visits to friends and relatives witnessed an
acceleration to 3957 and 3181 correspondingly whereas that of other reasons
followed an erratic pattern, constituting 990 in 1998.
Taking a closer look at the second picture, it is obvious that Western Europe was the
most prevalent destination for UK visitors at 19371 in 1994, 21 times higher than that
of North America and 10 times as high as that of other areas. After decelerating in
1995, its figure soared up and peaked at 24519 in 1998. The data on North America
witnessed a dramatic decline to 167 in 1996 prior to skyrocketing to 1823 at the end of
the period. The number of visitors to other areas was 2486 in 1998. The total figure
rose and stood at 28828 in 1998.
Task 2:
In this day and age, a plethora of youngsters tend to stay with their parents even
after they have accomplished education and possess a job. I strongly argue this
tendency is more likely to be advantageous due to money saving and
strengthening the bond between them and their parents, despite one manifest
drawback which is their independence.
On the one hand, there are several compelling reasons why young people opt for
living with their parents. One of which would be that they can save a significant
amount of money . More specifically, the cost of living has recently increased
inexorably, while many youngsters do not have adequate money to afford it.
This is because most of them have just graduated and got an entry-level job
which offers low salary. As well as this, staying with their parents is the optimal
choice for them to save money and accumulate the money for their coffers.
Another justification would be a flotilla of young people who want to live with
their parents to take care of them. To exemplify, these youngsters want to
allocate their time for their parents as a way to express their gratitude to them.
Therefore, living with parents would help them to not be limited by the
geographical boundaries and time constraints.
However, a detrimental effect can be derived from this trend is that it would
decrease their independence. It is undeniable that some young individuals live
with their parents because they cannot find a job,even though they may have a
qualification or a degree from university. Consequently, these youngsters
choose to live with their parents and utilise their parents’ money to pay for their
cost of living due the low economy that they possess. As a result, they would
lose the capability of finding a job and earning money, which is an extremely
pernicious influence on their future.
In conclusion, I would reiterate the positive aspects of staying with parents after
graduation and having a job are money-saving and being able to take care of
parents prevail over the demerits such as losing the independence.

In this day and age, a plethora of youngsters tend to stay with their parents even
after they have accomplished education and possess a job. I strongly argue this
tendency is more likely to be advantageous due to money saving and the
strengthened bond between them and their parents, despite one manifest
drawback which is their dependence on parents.
To commerce with, one of the cogents upsides of people choosing to live with
parents is that they can economise their finances. More specifically, the cost of
living has recently increased inexorably, meanwhile, many youngsters have just
graduated and got an entry-level job which offers low salary. Therefore they are
unable to afford the expensive fees for living such as houses, food, among
others. Another compelling advantage is that they would not have to endure
loneliness. It is undeniable that numerous young people nowadays move to alien
places such as some megacities and suffer from being alone which can make
them susceptible to several mental health diseases like autism. As a result,
staying with parents is an effective solution for them to tackle this issue because
youngsters can share their hurdles with their parents and also be empowered to
deal with the abundant workload from life.
However, a detrimental effect can be derived from this trend is that young
people can be immature and dependent on their parents. More specifically, some
individuals live in helicopter families where they are exempted from house
chores such as doing laundry or cooking dishes. Consequently, a mature adult
may lack the capacity for self-reliance, which would take the toll not only on
their daily life but also the successful career. (CHƯA CẦN ĐỌC CŨNG THẤY

SAMPLE:
In this day and age, a burgeoning plethora of youngsters have a tendency to live with their
parents after their graduation and employment. In my opinion, although this trend may exert
a pernicious effect on many families, its merits overshadow the demerits.
On the one hand, there is no denying that graduated and employed adults living with parents
may raise an array of perplexing problems and lead to detrimental repercussions. First and
foremost, this tendency will take a heavy toll on workers’ independence. It is conspicuous
that young adults who live with their parents are inclined to depend on their parents’ help in
household chores such as cleaning the houses, cooking and shopping. As a result, these
youngsters will lack independence and when their mothers and fathers pass away, they will
be unable to deal with the housework, eventuating in deterioration in their standards of living.
What is more, staying with parents after completing education and having an occupation
may raise many complex arguments. Apparently, the generation gaps between parents and
offsprings are big enough to cause daily quarrels, especially when children are over 18 and
have their own decisive rights. As a consequence, their family relationships may be
exacerbated
On the other hand, I believe that adults’ being together with parents after finishing curriculum
and finding a job may be tremendously beneficial. Firstly, it is obvious that the elderly’s
well-being is easy to collapse at any time and vulnerable to weather conditions. If adults stay
with their parents, their parents’ safety can be ensured as when they suffer from any
disease, their sons and daughters will be by their side and care for them. Although this need
for caring may be fulfilled by sending their parents to nursing homes, there is nothing as
precious as receiving care from offspring. Even in the toughest conditions, when their
parents may face death, being able to see their children for the last time will give them a
sense of satisfaction. Furthermore, at old ages,people are incapable of walking or doing
leisure activities and often lead a sedentary lives, having their sons and daughters
surrounding will help them improve their mood and emotional feelings. Last but not least,
living in an extended family will help reduce accommodation and daily needs’ costs. If
parents and offspring live separately, the electricity and water bills as well as houses’
maintenance will be doubled.Instead, parents can devote their pension and workers can
contribute their salaries to ameliorate the standards of living of both parties should they stay
together.
In conclusion, that adults live together with their parents may be somehow disadvantageous,
it is highly recommended that this trend continue to rise for the sake of their parenTS.

Given is the diagram illustrating the production of cocoa beans.
Overall, it is conspicuous that there are three main stages of the process, beginning with
collecting beans and ending with being transferred to industry or consumers.
As can be seen, in the first stage of the process, cocoa beans are collected, dried and then
shelled. Following this, the dried beans are pressed to become cocoa liquor before
undergoing one of two further processes. Afterwards,cocoa liquor can either be further
pressed, resulting in cocoa cake and cocoa, or the liquor can be further refined to make
industrial chocolate with the addition of sugar and cocoa.
Furthermore, in the third step of the process, cocoa cake is ground into cacao powder, which
can then either be sold to consumers or used in the manufacture of cakes, drinks and other
food products. On the other hand, industrial chocolate is processed further in the third stage
to make finished chocolate products ready to be sold.
Ok
Sample:
Given is the diagram illustrating the process by which cocoa beans are manufactured.
Overall, it is conspicuous that the process consists of a total of 3 main steps, commencing
with gathering whole beans and culminating in producing products that can be sold to the
consumer or used by the industry.
As transparent from the diagram, the process starts with step 1 where whole beans are
collected, dehydrated and divided into shells and beans. Subsequently, in the second step,
dried beans are pressed into cocoa liquor prior to being either pressed or refined. If the
beans undergo the further pressing stage, they will be made into cocoa, which will be used
by industry to make cakes and drinks or cocoa cake, which will be grinded into cocoa
powder and sold to the customer.
What is more, in case the cocoa liquor is directed to be refined further, they will undergo
different stages. The refined cocoa liquor will be mixed with sugar and cocoa with a view to
producing industrial chocolate. Subsequently, this chocolate will be further processed into
completed chocolate products, which will be available for consumers to purchase and enjoy.
Most people accept that we now live in a globalised world but not everyone
agrees that this is beneficial.
To what extent is globalization a positive or negative development?
In this day and age, society has become more global due the advent of social media as of late.
While a flotilla of people believe that we are currently living in a globalised world, certain
individuals this tendency does not seem a benefit. Therefore, this essay would exemplify
upsides and downsides of this trend.
To commerce with, it is understandable why many people subscribe to the view that
globalisation would do more good than harm. Advocates may argue that globalisation means
that citizens coming from distinct cultures can spread the beauties of their traditions to the
world. This is because the internet, which is conducive to exchanging different traditional
attractions between numerous people,has become more accessible to the masses than ever. As
a result, the world is overwhelmed with the variety of alien cultures and also enhancing the
bond between each people. Moreover, globalisation is inextricable with the strengthened
connection between countries so that they can subsidise each other in distinct areas such as
developing infrastructure, improving economy, among others. A compelling example is that
many multicultural companies from developed countries having thriving economies can settle
in several developing nations to create job opportunities for residents of those countries .
However, notwithstanding the fact that a plethora of profits can be derived from this trend, it
would provoke a valid concern that is cultural controversy. More specifically, people coming
from different traditions means that they may have distinct habits and beliefs. Consequently,
this may spell trouble for conflicts between groups of people. (tỉ viết lại viết tiếp đoạn ni

certain individuals contend this tendency does not seem like progress. Therefore, this essay
would exemplify upsides and downsides of this trend and why I am more inclined to the
former.
To commence with, it is understandable why many people subscribe to the view that
globalisation would play an integral role in human’s civilisation. Advocates may argue that
globalisation means that citizens coming from distinct cultures can spread the beauties of
their traditions to the world. This is because the internet, which is conducive to exchanging

companies from developed countries such as Google, Microsoft, which possess thriving
economies, can settle in several developing nations to create job opportunities for residents of

However, notwithstanding the aforementioned benefits, it would provoke some valid
concerns. One of which is cultural controversy. More specifically, it is justifiable that people
coming from different traditions means that they may have distinct habits and beliefs. As a
result, this may spell trouble for conflicts between groups of people. Addition to this, it is
feasible that this tendency might arguably lead to demises of several cultures. In other words,
globalisation is empowered to merge the distinct cultures with each other, which would
severely cause adverse repercussions on the unique splendour of each tradition. As a
consequence, some traditions may verge on disappearing, which can drain the variety of
cultures.
In conclusion, the aforementioned merits of globalisation would be more significant to
humankind's transformation than its two demerits. Nevertheless, it is recommended that each
group of people should have a sense of reinforcing and shielding their cultural attractions
from losing their value.
SAMPLE:
Considering the unceasing social development, globalization has now become a
renowned trend to people of all ages. However, there have been controversial
opinions about whether or not this tendency will be beneficial for global
citizens. From my perspective, globalization brings numerous benefits to human
beings, yet the drawbacks are considerable.
On the one hand, globalization is a contributing factor to citizens’ enhanced
living standards. For instance, the first Millennium Development Goal is a
concerted effort of hundreds of nations all around the world to cut the 1990
poverty rate in half by 2015. Thanks to this initiative, nearly 1.1 billion people,
especially those in underprivileged areas, have been lifted out of extreme
poverty. Furthermore, given the expansion of globalization, the global economy,
business transactions, and knowledge transfer have been greatly facilitated,
leading to greater contact between different cultures.
On the other hand, globalization might result in grave consequences. For
example, while globalization has facilitated the access to different foreign
cultures, it has also resulted in cultural assimilation, which is the prime reason
leading to the loss of cultural diversity. Moreover, a cultural crash is liable to
occur owing to globalization. Given the fact that different cultures are likely to
have opposing values, conflicts might arise during the interaction of residents
from different areas.
In conclusion, globalization brings both benefits and drawbacks to people in
various aspects. Thus, it is indispensable for nations to be highly aware of the
potential detriments so as to ensure the optimal development of each nation

The chart and table below give information about population figures in Japan.
Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and
make comparisons where relevant.
Given is the bar chart illustrating the population in trends of past, present, future and the table
demonstrating the data of residents aged 65 or over in Japan from 1950 to 2055.
Overall, it is conspicuous that the population of Japan has fluctuated between 1950 and 2050
and the old people have experienced an increase during the period shown.
As can be seen from the bar chart, the number of Japanese was 84.1 million in 1950. In the
following years, Japan's population inexorably rose to reach a peak of 127.1 million in 2010.
From 2010 to 2050 the number of inhabitants in Japan is forecasted to experience a decline to
89.9 million in the last year of the period.
Furthermore, when it comes to the table, in 1950, the number of residents in Japan who aged
at least 65 was 4.1 million and accounted for 4.9% of the total population. The period
between 1950 and 2005 witnessed a drastic climb in the number of senior citizens aged over
65 to 25.7 million and made up 20% of the Japanese population, doubling its initial ratio. In
the next 30 years, the figure of population above 65 is predicted to surge to 37.2 and occupy
34% of total population before flopping to 36.5 and accounting for 41% of Japanese
population in 2055.
It is undeniable that several areas such as medicine, education play an integral role in society.
However, certain individuals argue that these workers are downplayed and they should be
rewarded more, while other people such as film actors or company bosses are paid a great
amount of money which is considered to be unworthy of their importance. In my opinion, I
am more inclined to disagree with this point of view and give some solutions to tackle this
phenomenon.
To commence with,it is conspicuous that there is a compelling reason why some jobs such as
doctors, nurses are not paid well because of the poor economic background of many
countries. More specifically, the governments of these nations would give precedence to
allocate their money to foster some industries such as entertainment, agriculture which are
profitable for them to increase the amount of money in coffers. As a consequence, the
governments do not possess adequate money to pay to doctors, nurses, teachers, among
others. In addition, it is also understandable why numerous workers who are actors or
company bosses can earn an innumerable amount of money. In terms of actors, they can
attract their fans not only in their hometowns but also international advocates who would
subsidise an immense amount of money to them. As regards businessmen, they can earn a
significant profit by selling their products and services which are useful to the consumers.
In conclusion, all kinds of jobs deserve to possess a good income. Nevertheless, some jobs
such as

bosses can earn an innumerable amount of money. In terms of actors, they can attract a large
demographic of fans both national and international, who would donate an immense amount
of money to them. As regards businessmen, the bulk of them operate services or companies
manufacturing products. Therefore, the rise in the number of consumers is synonymous with
the more money that they earn.
Furthermore, several measures can be taken to remedy this issue. One of which is that the
authorities should increase the salaries of specific employees such as doctors, teachers. As a
result, these workers can receive enough money as their abundant contribution to the
society’s development. Hence, they can improve their budget to pay for the criminally
expensive cost of living and raise their families. Another viable solution would be the
governments should adjust the taxes on well-off people to subsidise the citizens who have
low income. To exemplify, the gap between the poor and the rich is extremely huge so a
stricter tax policy would be useful to alleviate this gap;thus, the low-income workers can
benefit from the amount of money which is derived from this change.
In conclusion, all workers deserve to possess a sufficient income because they are imperative
to humankind’s transformation and society, irrespective of differences between each area. It is
recommended that the governments should impose more appropriate laws in order to support
the people who possess low income and finance.

As the ecosystem is being devastated by human’s activities, environmental conservation has
become the topic of general interest recently . Certain people believe that individuals do not
have capability to improve the ecosystem and only authorities can make progress. I am more
inclined to disagree with this point of view.
On the one hand, advocates may argue that the protection from an individual does not render
a significant effect to the environment. This is because ordinary people do not have adequate
technologies when compared to the governments or numerous organisations.In addition, the
value of a citizen is believed to has an impact on just a small scale.Meanwhile the authorities
can utilise a flotilla of people and many green technologies to shield the environment from
being threatened. A compelling example is that in Vietnam, the government uses certain
machines which can remove chemicals from contaminated water sources.
On the other hand, it is unequivocal that there are a plethora of reasons to explain why
individuals play a pivotal role in the mission of talking about environmental issues. To
exemplify, if everyone does not have a responsibility of preserving the ecosystem, it would
engender more pernicious repercussions on the environment such as there would be more
people throwing rubbish into the water sources. As a consequence, this would put a strain on
governments and environmental institutions. Another justification is the more people pay
attention to environmental conservation, the more problems are tackled. This is due to the
fact that each individual would create a valid influence on the environment so if every citizen
has the sense of protecting the ecosystem, the stress on authorities would be alleviated
associated with the improvement of the environment. (OK, đoạn ni ổn)

In conclusion, I would contend that preserving the ecosystem is not the mission of only
authorities but also each individual in this world.
Environmental problems have always been a pressing issue for the whole
society. However, it is opined that only the authorities and businesses can
surmount the problem. From my perspective, environmental issues cannot be
tackled thoroughly without the participation of the residents.
On the one hand, the government and large organizations play a major role in
environmental protection. To begin with, the authorities are capable of imposing
legally binding laws on people causing harm to the surroundings. For example,
in Singapore, which is considered to be one of the most environmentally
friendly countries in the world, various rules are set out with a view to
protecting the natural world. One of those is that citizens are liable to be fined
up to 10.000 dollars if they are caught sight of throwing rubbish in public
places. In addition, large-scale organizations are able to provide financial
support for environmental activities. For instance, DHD Hydroelectric
Joint-stock Company has recently allocated 37 million dollars to build a solar
energy system in Vietnam. (human resource)
On the other hand, the importance of each individual’s participation in
protecting the environment is indisputable. As most of waste disposed into the
natural world is from households, it is obvious that residents have the ability to
protect their local ecosystem. Such simple actions as decreasing the amount of
plastic, stopping littering or cleaning the local environment regularly can play a
vital role in mitigating environmental issues.
In conclusion, I believe that the government and companies play a major role in
protecting the natural world; however, each individual also has an irreplaceable
part in long-term solutions.
Task 2: Some people think that schools should choose students according to
their academic abilities, while others think it is better to have students of
different abilities studying together. Discuss both views and state your own
opinion.
It is widely believed that attending a prestigious school is a determinant to success of an
individual. Certain people argue that schools should give precedence to choosing students by
reflecting on their academic performance, while others contend that it is better to possess
students of distinct abilities studying together. While segregating students on the basis of their
abilities can facilitate more specialised and efficient lessons, I would assert that integrating
students of varying aptitudes engenders a more complete learning environment.
On the one hand, there is a justification why many people subsidise the idea that schools
should admit the students based on their academic background is that when students are
assigned to a class based on skill level, teachers can plan and execute correctly paced lessons.
For instance, in the A-level program, core subjects are split into Standard Level and Higher
Level classes. Students who are in the Higher Level classes take lessons featuring more
advanced material and topics, whereas those in Standard Level classes face less demanding
topics and assignments. This separation allows them to study at their own speed, improving
the progress for weaker and stronger students as the former will be able to take their time to
learn and the latter group can proceed more rapidly. (ok)
However, students of differing skill sets can help each other to learn when they are together
in a single class. Students who are well-versed in a particular skill can share important
techniques and experience in how to master that skill with classmates who may be weaker. A
compelling example is that a student who is proficient at delivering presentations can share
valuable tips to others who are less competent in doing them such as taking deep breaths to
overcome their stage fight or using hand gestures to emphasise key points. In addition, there
is also a strong likelihood the student who was helped will possess other strengths such as in
a more logical subject like mathematics, and be able to support other classmates in turn.
Consequently, students can learn from one another in this setting and become more well
rounded. (ý chưa ổn lắm)
In conclusion, while selecting students based on their talents can offer a more specialised
studying environment, I would concur that merging students of varying abilities can provide
them a more comprehensive learning experience. It is recommended that schools should
prompt the implementation of mixed- ability classes to create a more holistic educational
system.

Education has always been considered to play an irreplaceable role in the young
generation’s life. Therefore, there have been controversial opinions about
whether or not students should be categorized based on their academic
performance. From my perspective, the merits of streaming classes outweigh
that of mixed ability ones.
On the one hand, it is evident that mixed ability classes enable students to
reach their comprehensive development. These classes offer students
opportunities to learn from each other in order to develop the abilities that were
absent from them previously. To demonstrate this, a student with an excellent
academic ability can learn various social skills from peers who are less
academic but rather sociable. Furthermore, it has been proven that discussion
and collaboration between students with different abilities give high achievers
the opportunity to elaborate their cognitive skill, while providing low achievers
the opportunity to ask questions that they may not feel comfortable sharing with
their teacher.
On the other hand, it is opined that streaming classes are liable to provide a
higher sense of motivation. It is indisputable that peer pressure is one of the
factors resulting in success, which can be proven by the fact that children have
a tendency to compare their exam results with their friends. These positive
emulations among the young generation is liable to generate a forceful
motivation which significantly stimulates children to concentrate on studying.
Moreover, this system enables the young generation to learn in a more effective
way, as particular teaching methods, timeframe and teaching materials are
distributed in order to accommodate more specific learning.
In conclusion, although the merits given by the mixed classes are considerable, I
would recommend the other educational system with a view to providing the
youth with a more beneficial environment for their studying.
